Merck, NA57-100UG, Anti-DNA-PK (Ab-2) Mouse mAb (18-2)

General description
Purified mouse monoclonal antibody generated by immunizing BALB/c mice with the specified immunogen and fusing the splenocytes with mouse myeloma SP2/0 cells (see application references). Recognizes the ~460 kDa DNA-PK protein.
Recognizes the ~470 kDa DNA-PK protein in A431, HeLa, and HL60 cells, normal tonsil, normal colon, and breast carcinoma tissue.

This antibody will inhibit (approximately 50%) the kinase activity of DNA-PKcs. However, preincubation of the enzyme with DNA protects DNA-PKcs against inactivation by Clone 18-2. Antibody should be titrated for optimal results in individual systems.
