Product Overview
Clone 21R88 is a rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes ribosomal protein S6 kinase alpha-1 (gene RPS6KA1) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, ICC/IF, immunoprecipitation and flow cytometry. The predicted molecular weight is 82.7 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 83 kDa.
RSK1 (RPS6KA1, p90RSK) is a serine/threonine kinase with two kinase domains that is activated by ERK1/2 in the MAPK pathway. It phosphorylates targets such as CREB, RPS6, eIF4B and the pro-apoptotic protein BAD, linking growth factor signaling to transcription, protein synthesis and cell survival.

Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
