Product Overview
eEF2K (P360) polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of eEF2K protein.
eEF2K is 105 kDa protein that is detected in skeletal muscle extracts and is phosphorylated rapidly by SAPK4, but poorly by p38, p38γ, JNK or ERK 2. SAPK4 phosphorylates eEF2K at Ser 359 and Ser 396 in vitro, causing its inactivation. The phosphorylation of eEF2K at Ser 359 is also induced by insulin-like growth factor-1. Ser 359 is in close proximity to Ser 366 and the Ser 366 residue also becomes phosphorylated in response to growth factors.

This antibody has been validated for WB, IHC. Always refer to the product datasheet for recommended dilution ranges and appropriate positive control samples for each application type.
Validated reactivity has been confirmed for Human, Mouse, Rat. Cross-reactivity with additional species may exist based on sequence homology but has not been confirmed by the manufacturer. For unlisted species, we recommend running a preliminary validation experiment.
This antibody was raised in Rabbit. For indirect detection (WB, IHC, IF), select an anti-Rabbit secondary antibody that matches the isotype. For direct detection, check the variant selector for conjugated formats. Confirm secondary antibody compatibility before ordering.

Please refer to the storage conditions on the product label and datasheet. As a general best practice: upon receipt, aliquot into single-use volumes to minimize freeze-thaw cycling, which can progressively reduce antibody performance and lead to aggregation.
Validated reactivity covers Human, Mouse, Rat samples. Performance can vary across different cell lines and tissue types depending on target antigen expression levels and epitope accessibility. We recommend verifying target expression in your specific model system using a known positive control before proceeding to experimental samples.
