Pak1 antibody

Manufactured by Santa Cruz Biotechnology
Sourced in Sweden

The PAK1 antibody is a research tool used to detect and study the p21-activated kinase 1 (PAK1) protein. PAK1 is a serine/threonine protein kinase that plays a role in various cellular processes. The antibody can be utilized in techniques such as Western blotting, immunoprecipitation, and immunohistochemistry to identify and analyze the PAK1 protein in biological samples.

Assessing PAK1 Kinase Activity

BGC 823 cells were incubated with indicated concentration of small molecular compounds. Then cells were suspended in cold lysis buffer supplemented with protease and phosphatase inhibitors. Supernatants were preabsorbed with protein A-Sepharose 4B beads (GE Healthcare Bio-Science Inc., Sweden) for 1 h at 4 °C before incubation with PAK1 antibody (Santa Cruz). Then the supernatants with equal amounts of protein were subjected to immunoprecipitation with PAK1 antibody. MBP was used as substrates to assess PAK1 kinase activity. Kinase activity was measured in kinase buffer containing 10 μCi of [r-32P] ATP (5000 Ci mmol−1) for 30 min at 30 °C. Reactions were terminated by addition of 6 × SDS buffer and loading on a 12% SDS-PAGE. 32P-labelled proteins were transferred onto PVDF membranes and detected by autoradiography with Molecular Imager RX (BIO-RAD).

List of all secondary antibodies used: Dylight Rabbit 680 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, 35568), Dylight Mouse 800 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, SA5-35521), Alexa Fluor 488 anti-chicken (Thermo Fisher Scientific, A11039), Alexa Fluor 633 anti-mouse (Thermo Fisher Scientific, A21050), Phalloidin TRITC (Sigma-Aldrich, P1951, 1/40,000), Hoechst (Sigma-Aldrich, B2261, 1/50,000).
Cell culture, transfection and immunoblot analysis of Phospho-PAK amounts HEK293T and N1E-115 neuroblastoma cell lines were obtained from ATCC and were regularly tested for mycoplasma contamination by PCR. Cells were cultured and transfected as described in [25] . Immunoblot analysis for quantification of Phospho-PAK levels were also performed as described in [25] , as was the quantification of lamellipodia in N1E-115 cells.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
