Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase beta (gene pi4kb) in zebrafish samples and is validated for IHC.
PI4KB (PI4Kβ) is a type III phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase that generates PI4P mainly at the Golgi, supporting secretory traffic from the Golgi to the plasma membrane. It is also hijacked by several positive-strand RNA viruses, such as enteroviruses, to build their replication organelles, making it a target in both membrane biology and antiviral research.

| Host / Clonality / Isotype | Rabbit / Polyclonal / Rabbit IgG |
| Reactivity | Zebrafish |
| Form | Lyophilized |
| Formulation | Per vial: 4 mg trehalose; 0.9 mg NaCl; 0.2 mg Na2HPO4 |
| Storage | As supplied: −20 °C for up to 12 months from receipt. After reconstitution: 4 °C for up to 1 month, or aliquot and keep at −20 °C for up to 6 months. Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles. |
Validated Applications
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 2–5 µg/mL (Zebrafish) |
|---|
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): zebrafish brain tissue, zebrafish spinal tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Immunogen
Recombinant zebrafish PI4KB fragment (Asp394–Asp690), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with zebrafish. UniProt places phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase beta in the endomembrane system, mitochondrion outer membrane and rough endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (zebrafish): Expressed in the inner ear otic vesicles.

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).
