Description
Rabbit polyclonal to AKT1 (phospho S473) -
Host species
Rabbit -
Specificity
The immunogen was raised against Human AKT1 phosphorylated at serine 473, however due to the high degree of similarity between AKT1, AKT2 and AKT3 the antibody is also predicted to react with all these isoforms. -
Tested applications
Suitable for: IHC-P, WBmore details -
Species reactivity
Reacts with: Mouse
Predicted to work with: Rat, Cow, Human, Xenopus laevis, African green monkey -

Performed under reducing conditions.
Predicted band size: 57 kDa
Observed band size: 57-60 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?
Additional bands at: 130 kDa, 78 kDa. We are unsure as to the identity of these extra bands.
Exposure time: 2 minutes
We are unsure of the identity of the higher bands detected at ~78 and 130 kDa. We believe this could be cross reaction with other phospho proteins, however the target band at 57 kDa is detected only in PDGF treated lysate and this signal is quenched by addition of the immunising peptide suggesting a specific interaction. -
IHC image of AKT1 (phospho S473) staining in mouse lung formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section, performed on a Leica Bond system using the standard protocol B. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab18206, 5µg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature. A goat anti-rabbit biotinylated secondary antibody was used to detect the primary, and visualized using an HRP conjugated ABC system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.
For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.
