    Product Information

    Product Description

    This Cell Signaling Technology antibody was conjugated to Alexa Fluor® 488 fluorescent dye and tested in-house for direct flow cytometric analysis of human cells. The unconjugated antibody #9315 reacts with human, mouse, rat and monkey GSK-3β. CST expects that GSK-3β (27C10) Rabbit mAb (Alexa Fluor® 488 Conjugate) will also recognize GSK-3β in these species.

    Storage

    Supplied in PBS (pH 7.2), less than 0.1% sodium azide and 2 mg/ml BSA. Store at 4°C. Do not aliquot the antibody. Protect from light. Do not freeze.

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    GSK-3β (27C10) Rabbit mAb (Alexa Fluor® 488 Conjugate) detects endogenous levels of total GSK-3β protein.

    Species Reactivity:

    Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey

    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the sequence of human GSK-3β. The antibody was conjugated to Alexa Fluor® 488 under optimal conditions with an F/P ratio of 2-5.

    Background

    Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) was initially identified as an enzyme that regulates glycogen synthesis in response to insulin (1). GSK-3 is a ubiquitously expressed serine/threonine protein kinase that phosphorylates and inactivates glycogen synthase. GSK-3 is a critical downstream element of the PI3K/Akt cell survival pathway whose activity can be inhibited by Akt-mediated phosphorylation at Ser21 of GSK-3α and Ser9 of GSK-3β (2,3). GSK-3 has been implicated in the regulation of cell fate in Dictyostelium and is a component of the Wnt signaling pathway required for Drosophila, Xenopus, and mammalian development (4). GSK-3 has been shown to regulate cyclin D1 proteolysis and subcellular localization (5).

    Alternate Names

    glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta; Glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta; GSK-3 beta; GSK3B; GSK3beta; GSK3beta isoform; Serine/threonine-protein kinase GSK3B
