Product Type Specific: PKM2 phosphosite-specific antibody

Antibody Code: PN772

Antibody Target Type: Phosphosite-specific

Antibody Phosphosite: Y105

Protein UniProt: P14618

Protein SigNET: PKM2

Antibody Type: Polyclonal

Antibody Host Species: Rabbit

Antibody Immunogen Source: Synthetic phosphopeptide patterned after human PKM2

Antibody Immunogen Sequence: PIL(pY)RPVAC

Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues P102 to A109 . Y105 phosphorylation inhibits phosphotransferase activity, although there is one report of activation), and inhibits interaction with PKM and TRIM35. This is one of the prominent in vivo phosphorylation sites in PKM2 (≥445 reports from high throughput mass spectrometry studies recorded in PhosphoSitePlus). PKM2 is known to be phosphorylated at this site in vitro by FGFR1, and NPM-ALK.

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.

Scientific Background: PKM2 functions as a glycolytic enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of a phosphoryl group from phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to ADP, and generates ATP. It stimulates POU5F1-mediated transcriptional activation. It appears to plays a general role in caspase independent cell death of tumour cells. The ratio between its highly active tetrameric form and nearly inactive dimeric form determines whether glucose carbons are channeled to biosynthetic processes or used for glycolytic ATP production. The transition between the 2 forms contributes to the control of glycolysis and is thought to be important for tumour cell proliferation and survival.
