Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes wee1-like protein kinase in human and mouse samples and is validated for Western blot, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 71.6 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 72 kDa.
WEE1 is a nuclear kinase that sets the timing of mitotic entry by phosphorylating CDK1 on tyrosine 15, which keeps the cyclin B1–CDK1 complex inactive during S and G2 phases. Removal of this inhibitory mark by CDC25 phosphatases allows cells to enter mitosis, making WEE1 a central G2/M checkpoint regulator studied in cell-cycle control and DNA damage responses.

Immunogen
Recombinant human WEE1 fragment (Arg13–Arg581), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human and mouse. UniProt places wee1-like protein kinase in the nucleus. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.

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).
