Overview
GK2 Antibody / Glycerol kinase 2 is an antibody targeting GK2. Host: Rabbit. Polyclonal. Format: Lyophilized. Applications: WB, ICC/IF, FACS.
Key elements and design rationale
- Target: GK2.
- Immunogen: A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the N-terminus of human GK2 was used as the immunogen for the GK2 an….
- Species reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat.
- Localization: Cytoplasm.
- Conjugate: Unconjugated (no label listed).
Biological background (from provided description)
GK2 antibody detects Glycerol kinase 2, encoded by the GK2 gene on chromosome 4q13.3. GK2 antibody is commonly applied in studies of glycerol metabolism, mitochondrial energy regulation, and sperm function. GK2 belongs to the glycerol kinase family, enzymes that phosphorylate glycerol to glycerol-3-phosphate, a critical intermediate in lipid metabolism and glycolysis.
Common research applications
- WB: relative abundance and band pattern assessment using appropriate controls.
- IF/ICC: subcellular localization imaging with proper background controls.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Account for isoforms, paralogs, and post-translational modifications when interpreting signal.
- Support specificity with biological controls (e.g., KO/KD where available) and technical controls (e.g., secondary-only/isotype).
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).
