Bio-Rad, AHP1233, GSK3 Beta (pSer9) antibody

Rabbit anti Rat GSK3 beta (pSer9) antibody recognizes GSK3 beta, also known as glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (GSK-3 beta), factor A (FA) and serine/threonine-protein kinase GSK3B, when phosphorylated at serine 9. GSK3 is a ~46 kDa member of the serine/threonine protein kinase family. Two isforms of GSK3 exist, alpha and beta. GSK3 beta is expressed in the testis, thymus, prostate, and ovary as well as being expressed at low levels in lung, brain and kidney tissue. GSK3 beta is involved in many signalling pathways including energy metabolism, body pattern formation and microtubule growth and stability (which aids axon growth). GSK3 beta is also thought to be involved in oncogenesis and the hormonal control of several regulatory proteins including glycogen synthase. Phosphorylation of serine-9 inhibits GSK3 beta function.

Storage Information
This product is shipped at ambient temperature. It is recommended to aliquot and store at -20°C on receipt. When thawed, aliquot the sample as needed. Keep aliquots at 2-8°C for short term use (up to 4 weeks) and store the remaining aliquots at -20°C.
