Application Notes

Peptide ELISA: antibody detection limit dilution 1:128000. Western blot: Approx 60kD band observed in Mouse Embryonic Fibroblasts (MEF) lysates, not present in the knockout MEFs and reappearing as a 45kD band upon reintroduction of MK2 gene expression through viral transduction (calculated MW of 44.0kD according to Mouse NP_032577.1). The observed molecular weights correspond to earlier findings in literature with different antibodies (Menon et al, Cell Motil Cytoskeleton. 2009 Dec;66(12):1041-7. PMID: 19743408). There is no cross-reactivity to MK5. Data obtained from Dr. M. B. Menon, Inst. Biochemistry, Hannover Medical School, Germany. Recommended concentration: 0.5-2 ug/ml. Immunoprecipitation: MK2/MK3 double knockout MEFs retrovirally transduced with MK2 or empty vector were lysed from confluent plates and used for IP with 1.5 ug EB11929 or EB11930. Western blots of the IP were labeled with rabbit anti-MK2 (CST). An approx 45kD of MK2 is only precipitated from lysates of those KO MEFs that have been rescued by the MK2 expression construct as described in PMID: 19743408. Data obtained from Dr. M. B. Menon, Inst. Biochemistry, Hannover Medical School, Germany.
