Product Type Specific: Tyk2 protein kinase pan-specific antibody
Antibody Code: NK181-5
Antibody Target Type: Pan-specific
Protein UniProt: P29597
Protein SigNET: Tyk2
Antibody Type: Polyclonal
Antibody Host Species: Rabbit
Antibody Immunogen Source: Human Tyk2 sequence peptide Cat. No.: PE-01AVL80
Antibody Immunogen Sequence: CWETEASFRPTFENLI
Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues C1151 to I1166; Kinase last alpha-chain.
Production Method: The immunizing peptide was produced by solid phase synthesis on a multipep peptide synthesizer and purified by reverse-phase hplc chromatography. Purity was assessed by analytical hplc and the amino acid sequence confirmed by mass spectrometry analysis. This peptide was coupled to KLH prior to immunization into rabbits. New Zealand White rabbits were subcutaneously injected with KLH-coupled immunizing peptide every 4 weeks for 4 months. The sera from these animals was applied onto an agarose column to which the immunogen peptide was thio-linked. Antibody was eluted from the column with 0.1 M glycine, pH 2.5. Subsequently, the antibody solution was neutralized to pH 7.0 with saturated Tris.
Antibody Modification: Unconjugated. Contact KInexus if you are interest in having the antibody biotinylated or coupled with fluorescent dyes.
Antibody Concentration: 1 mg/ml
Storage Buffer: Phosphate buffered saline pH 7.4, 0.05% Thimerasol
Storage Conditions: For long term storage, keep frozen at -40°C or lower. Stock solution can be kept at +4°C for more than 3 months. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Product Use: Western blotting | Antibody microarray
Antibody Dilution Recommended: 2 µg/ml for immunoblotting
Antibody Potency: Weak reactivity with recombinant human Tyk2 on protein dot blots.
Antibody Species Reactivity: This antibody detects the target protein in the following species due to conservation of amino acid sequence: Human | Mouse | Frog.
Antibody Positive Control: The observed molecular mass of the processed target protein on SDS-PAGE gels is reported to be around 130-140 kDa.
Antibody Specificity: Medium
Antibody Cross Reactivity: Very weak immunoreactivity on protein dot blots with recombinant human JAK3. No immunoreactivity on protein dot blots with recombinant human JAK1 and JAK2.

Scientific Background: Tyk2 (Tyrosine kinase 2) is a 134 kDa protein-tyrosine kinase of the TK group and JakA family. It functions an intracellular signaling enzyme crucial for innate and adaptive immunity. It associates with type I/II cytokine receptors to mediate signals for interleukins and interferons, and regulates cell growth and inflammation. It mediates signaling through type I interferon receptors (IFNAR1), IL-12, IL-23, and IL-22 receptors. Upon cytokine binding, Tyk2 phosphorylates receptor subunits and STAT proteins, driving immune response regulation. It features tandem kinase domains: a C-terminal catalytic tyrosine kinase domain (JH1) and an allosteric pseudo-kinase domain (JH2). Phosphorylation of Tyr-1054 and Tyr-1055 increases phosphotransferase activity. Tyk2 is heavily implicated in autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, including psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and inflammatory bowel disease.Missense mutations in this gene have been found in colon and ovarian tumours.
