{"product_id":"cst-55250sf","title":"CST,  55250SF, Phospho-mTOR (Ser2481) (A3S4O) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free)","description":"Monoclonal Antibody for studying mTOR (Ser2481) phosphate. Validated for ELISA+. Highly specific and rigorously validated in-house, Phospho-mTOR (Ser2481) (A3S4O) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) (CST #55250) is ready to ship.\n\n\u003cb\u003eProduct Usage Information\u003c\/b\u003e\nThis formulation is ideal for use with technologies requiring specialized or custom antibody labeling, including fluorophores, metals, lanthanides, and oligonucleotides. It is not recommended for ChIP, ChIP-seq, CUT\u0026amp;RUN or CUT\u0026amp;Tag assays. If you require a carrier free formulation for chromatin profiling, please contact us . Optimal dilutions\/concentrations should be determined by the end user. BSA and Azide Free antibodies are quality control tested by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to determine antibody integrity.\n\u003cb\u003eFormulation\u003c\/b\u003e\nSupplied in 1X PBS (10 mM Na 2 HPO 4 , 3 mM KCl, 2 mM KH 2 PO 4 , and 140 mM NaCl (pH 7.8)). BSA and Azide Free.\n\u003cb\u003eStorage\u003c\/b\u003e\nStore at -20°C. This product will freeze at -20°C so it is recommended to aliquot into single-use vials to avoid multiple freeze\/thaw cycles. A slight precipitate may be present and can be dissolved by gently vortexing. This will not interfere with antibody performance.\n\u003cb\u003eSpecificity \/ Sensitivity\u003c\/b\u003e\nPhospho-mTOR (Ser2481) (A3S4O) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) detects endogenous levels of mTOR protein only when phosphorylated at Ser2481.\nSpecies Reactivity: Human, Mouse\n\u003cb\u003eSource \/ Purification\u003c\/b\u003e\nMonoclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic phosphopeptide corresponding to residues surrounding Ser2481 of human mTOR\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nThe mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR, FRAP, RAFT) is a Ser\/Thr protein kinase (1-3) that functions as an ATP and amino acid sensor to balance nutrient availability and cell growth (4,5). When sufficient nutrients are available, mTOR responds to a phosphatidic acid-mediated signal to transmit a positive signal to p70 S6 kinase and participate in the inactivation of the eIF4E inhibitor, 4E-BP1 (6). These events result in the translation of specific mRNA subpopulations. mTOR is phosphorylated at Ser2448 via the PI3 kinase\/Akt signaling pathway and autophosphorylated at Ser2481 (7,8). mTOR plays a key role in cell growth and homeostasis and may be abnormally regulated in tumors. For these reasons, mTOR is currently under investigation as a potential target for anti-cancer therapy (9).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nFK506 binding protein 12-rapamycin associated protein 1; FK506 binding protein 12-rapamycin associated protein 2; FK506-binding protein 12-rapamycin complex-associated protein 1; FKBP-rapamycin associated protein; FKBP12-rapamycin complex-associated protein; FKBP12-rapamycin complex-associated protein 1; FLJ44809; FRAP; FRAP1; FRAP2; Mammalian target of rapamycin; Mechanistic target of rapamycin; mechanistic target of rapamycin (serine\/threonine kinase); mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase; mTOR; RAFT1; rapamycin and FKBP12 target 1; rapamycin associated protein FRAP2; Rapamycin target protein 1; RAPT1; Serine\/threonine-protein kinase mTOR; SKS\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800315777193,"sku":"55250SF","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-55250sf","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
