REACH authorisation
Abcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.
It is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.
Lysate preparation:
Our lysates are made using RIPA buffer to which we add a protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (ratio: 300:100:10).
This means that the protein of interest is denatured.
If you require a native form of the protein please use the live cell version. Please refer to our lysis protocol for further details on how our lysates are prepared.

JAK2 also known as Janus kinase 2 is a protein tyrosine kinase with a molecular weight of 125 kDa. It plays an essential mechanical role in the signaling pathways by acting as an intermediary between cell surface receptors and intracellular signaling molecules. The JAK2 protein binds to certain cytokine receptors facilitating signal transduction necessary for various cellular responses. JAK2 is expressed in many tissues including hematopoietic cells which are associated with the blood and immune systems.
Biological function summary
JAK2 is important for transmitting signals that dictate cell growth survival and differentiation within the hematopoietic system. It operates bodily functions by forming complexes with specific phosphorylation sites on its associated receptors. Through this formation JAK2 influences the signaling cascade particularly by interacting with other signal transducers and activators where it phosphorylates and becomes activated. This action affects gene transcription directly correlated with cellular proliferation and differentiation processes.
Pathways
The function of JAK2 integrates into the JAK-STAT signaling pathway which is an important pathway in the regulation of immune function growth and development. It works in conjunction with proteins such as STAT3 and STAT5 to transmit signals from cytokine receptors to the nucleus. This pathway critically impacts responses like inflammation and hematopoiesis aligning with its role in precursor proliferation within the bone marrow and various immune cells’ function.
JAK2 has significant implications in conditions like myeloproliferative neoplasms and polycythemia vera. Mutations in the JAK2 gene notably the JAK2 V617F mutation lead to uncontrolled cell division as they disrupt normal signaling mechanisms often resulting in blood cell disorders. In these contexts JAK2 interacts with proteins such as EpoR and MPL which play roles within these disease pathways. Understanding how JAK2 mutations contribute to disease progression offers pathways for targeted therapies.
