{"product_id":"cst-68774sf","title":"CST,  68774SF, PKM1 (D30G6) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free)","description":"Monoclonal Antibody for studying PKM1. Validated for WB,IHC,IF,IF,F. Highly specific and rigorously validated in-house, PKM1 (D30G6) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) (CST #68774) is ready to ship.\n\n\u003cb\u003eProduct Usage Information\u003c\/b\u003e\nThis product is the carrier free version of product #7067. All data were generated using the same antibody clone in the standard formulation which contains BSA and glycerol. This 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. For standard formulation of this product see product # 7067\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\nPKM1 (D30G6) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) recognizes endogenous levels of total PKM1 protein and does not cross-react with PKM2.\nSpecies Reactivity: Human, Mouse\n\u003cb\u003eSource \/ Purification\u003c\/b\u003e\nMonoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Asp407 of human PKM1 protein.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nPyruvate kinase is a glycolytic enzyme that catalyses the conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate. In mammals, the M1 isoform (PKM1) is expressed in most adult tissues (1). The M2 isoform (PKM2) is an alternatively spliced variant of M1 that is expressed during embryonic development (1). Research studies found that cancer cells exclusively express PKM2 (1-3). PKM2 is shown to be essential for aerobic glycolysis in tumors, known as the Warburg effect (1). When cancer cells switch from the M2 isoform to the M1 isoform, aerobic glycolysis is reduced and oxidative phosphorylation is increased (1). These cells also show decreased tumorigenicity in mouse xenografts (1). Recent studies showed that PKM2 is not essential for all tumor cells (4). In the tumor model studied, PKM2 was found to be active in the non-proliferative tumor cell population and inactive in the proliferative tumor cell population (4).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nCTHBP; Cytosolic thyroid hormone-binding protein; epididymis secretory protein Li 30; HEL-S-30; KPYM; MGC3932; OIP-3; OIP3; Opa-interacting protein 3; p58; PK, muscle type; PK2; PK3; PKM; PKM iso2; PKM2; Pyruvate kinase 2\/3; Pyruvate kinase isozymes M1\/M2; pyruvate kinase M1\/2; Pyruvate kinase muscle isozyme; Pyruvate kinase PKM; pyruvate kinase, muscle; TCB; THBP1; Thyroid hormone-binding protein 1; thyroid hormone-binding protein, cytosolic; Tumor M2-PK\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 60\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799856500905,"sku":"68774SF","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-68774sf","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
