    Storage

    Supplied in 10 mM sodium HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg/ml BSA and 50% glycerol. Store at –20°C. Do not aliquot the antibody.

    Protocol

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    DRAK2 Antibody detects endogenous levels of total DRAK2 protein.

    Species Reactivity:

    Mouse

    Source / Purification

    Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Asp315 of mouse DRAK2. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

    Background

    DRAK2 (DAP kinase related apoptosis inducing protein kinase 2) is a member of the novel DAP (death associated protein) pro-apoptotic kinase family (1). Overexpression of DRAK2 in NIH/3T3 cells induces morphological changes associated with apoptosis, which are likely to occur in a p53-dependent manner (1,2). DRAK2 is preferentially expressed in lymphoid tissues and regulates the TCR activation threshold during thymocyte selection (3). Indeed, T cells from DRAK2(-/-) mice exhibit enhanced sensitivity to T cell receptor-mediated stimulation and have a reduced requirement for co-stimulation (4).
