Reported biological context includes: This gene encodes a member of the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (GTP) family. The protein is a mitochondrial enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of oxaloacetate to phosphoenolpyruvate in the presence of GTP. Subcellular localization information (Cytoplasmic) can be useful when interpreting IF\/ICC patterns and selecting compartment-enriched lysates for WB.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003ePost-translational modification mapping: phosphorylation-site–resolved antibodies are used to connect signaling inputs to target activation states and downstream readouts.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eSignal-flow and turnover studies: researchers pair immunodetection with perturbations that modulate enzymatic activity or proteostasis to understand regulation, stability, and feedback.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eSpatial and single-cell approaches: imaging-based and cytometry workflows increasingly quantify heterogeneity and relocalization rather than only bulk abundance.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003eImmunofluorescence (IF): visualize localization and co-localization patterns in cells or tissues.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eWestern blot (WB): compare relative abundance\/isoform patterns across conditions and sample types; band shifts may reflect processing or post-translational modification.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eIHC-P: commonly used to measure relative target levels or localization changes in the context of the experimental question.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcross these readouts, differences in signal intensity, localization, or complex enrichment are typically interpreted alongside sample-matched controls and independent evidence to distinguish regulation from technical variation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003eIsoforms, cleavage products, or post-translational modifications can alter apparent molecular weight and subcellular distribution; interpret bands and staining patterns in the context of expected biology and sample preparation.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eSpecies differences and epitope conservation may affect binding; use matched positive controls and orthogonal evidence when comparing across organisms.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eControl concepts: include appropriate isotype and secondary-only controls (for imaging), and consider genetic perturbations (knockout\/knockdown\/overexpression) or independent antibodies targeting distinct epitopes to strengthen conclusions.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eEpitope context is defined by the immunogen description; when available, align this with known domains, PTM sites, or family homology to anticipate potential cross-reactivity patterns. As a polyclonal antibody, recognition spans multiple epitopes, which can improve detection across conformations but may broaden background depending on sample context.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c!-- Sources (internal): - UniProtKB entry (Q16822) — UniProt Consortium — https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/uniprotkb\/Q16822\/entry - NCBI Gene search (PEPCK2) — NCBI — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=PEPCK2 - Ensembl search (PEPCK2) — Ensembl — https:\/\/www.ensembl.org\/Multi\/Search\/Results?q=PEPCK2 - PubMed search (PEPCK2) — NLM — https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=PEPCK2 - Reactome pathway search (PEPCK2) — Reactome — https:\/\/reactome.org\/content\/query?q=PEPCK2 --\u003e","brand":"NSJ Bioreagents","offers":[{"title":"In 1X PBS, pH 7.4, with 0.09% sodium azide \/ 0.08 ml","offer_id":53043238175085,"sku":"F54964-0.08ML","price":205.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"In 1X PBS, pH 7.4, with 0.09% sodium azide \/ 0.4 ml","offer_id":53043660063085,"sku":"F54964-0.4ML","price":439.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/get_image_d3eb1c3b-e933-4379-bda4-2cbbfc2787ba.jpg?v=1771934336","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/pepck2-antibody-pck2-bha17103424","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
