Product overview
JNK2 ELISA Kit (ab218265) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of JNK2 protein in cell culture extracts and tissue extracts. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate JNK2 with 80.7 pg/ml sensitivity.
SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:
- Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
- High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
- Fully validated in biological samples
- 96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells stripsA 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

Notes
JNK2 is a c-Jun N-terminal kinase related to JNK1 and JNK3; all are mitogen-activated protein kinase family members. The JNKs are activated in response to stress stimuli, including inflammatory cytokines, ultraviolet irradiation, heat shock, and osmotic shock. JNK2 functions in signal transduction be phosphorylating transcription factors. JNK2 amino acid sequence is highly conserved across mammals and human JNK2 has approximately 81% sequence identity to human JNK1 and 84% to JNK3.

Function
Responds to activation by environmental stress and pro-inflammatory cytokines by phosphorylating a number of transcription factors, primarily components of AP-1 such as c-Jun and ATF2 and thus regulates AP-1 transcriptional activity. In T-cells, JNK1 and JNK2 are required for polarized differentiation of T-helper cells into Th1 cells.
JNK2 isoforms display different binding patterns: alpha-1 and alpha-2 preferentially bind to c-Jun, whereas beta-1 and beta-2 bind to ATF2. However, there is no correlation between binding and phosphorylation, which is achieved at about the same efficiency by all isoforms. JUNB is not a substrate for JNK2 alpha-2, and JUND binds only weakly to it. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. CMGC Ser/Thr protein kinase family. MAP kinase subfamily.
Contains 1 protein kinase domain. -
Domain
The TXY motif contains the threonine and tyrosine residues whose phosphorylation activates the MAP kinases. -
Post-translational
modificationsDually phosphorylated on Thr-183 and Tyr-185, which activates the enzyme. Autophosphorylated in vitro. - Information by UniProt

SimpleStep ELISA technology allows the formation of the antibody-antigen complex in one single step, reducing assay time to 90 minutes. Add samples or standards and antibody mix to wells all at once, incubate, wash, and add your final substrate. See protocol for a detailed step-by-step guide.

Undiluted extract based on an 800 μg/mL, 300 μg/mL, and 800 μg/mL respective extract load. The concentrations of JNK2 were measured in duplicate and interpolated from the JNK2 standard curve and corrected for sample dilution. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean JNK2 concentration was determined to be 5175 pg/mL in human brain homogenate extract, 10721 pg/mL in MCF7 extract and 1451 pg/mL in HEPG2 extract.
