Jak3 Antibody #3775

Applications Reactivity MW (kDa) Source
W H 115 Rabbit

Applications Key:  W=Western Blotting
Reactivity Key:  H=Human
Species enclosed in parentheses are predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology. Species cross-reactivity is determined by Western blot.

Specificity / Sensitivity

Jak3 Antibody detects endogenous levels of total Jak3 protein. No cross-reactivity was detected with other family members at physiological conditions.

Source / Purification

Polyclonal antibodies are prepared by immunizing rabbits with a synthetic peptide (KLH-coupled) corresponding to residues at the carboxy-terminus of Jak3. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

Western Blotting

Western Blotting

Western Blotting

Western blot analysis of recombinant proteins containing the kinase domain of Jak1, Jak2 and Jak3 (5 ng each), using Jak3 Antibody.

Background

Members of the Janus family of tyrosine kinases (Jak1, Jak2, Jak3 and Tyk2) are activated by ligands binding to a number of associated cytokine receptors (1). Upon cytokine receptor activation, Jak proteins become autophosphorylated and phosphorylate their associated receptors to provide multiple binding sites for signaling proteins. These associated signaling proteins, such as Stats (2), Shc (3), insulin receptor substrates (4) and focal adhesion kinase (FAK) (5), typically contain SH2 or other phospho-tyrosine-binding domains.
