    Protocol

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    IKK gamma Antibody detects endogenous levels of total IKKγ protein independent of phosphorylation. This antibody does not cross-react with IKKα or IKKβ.

    Species Reactivity:

    Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey

    Source / Purification

    Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the carboxy terminus of human IKKγ protein. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

    Background

    The NF-κB/Rel transcription factors are present in the cytosol in an inactive state, complexed with the inhibitory IκB proteins (1-3). Most agents that activate NF-κB do so through a common pathway based on phosphorylation-induced, proteasome-mediated degradation of IκB (3-7). The key regulatory step in this pathway involves activation of a high molecular weight IκB kinase (IKK) complex whose catalysis is generally carried out by three tightly associated IKK subunits. IKKα and IKKβ serve as the catalytic subunits of the kinase and IKKγ serves as the regulatory subunit (8,9). Activation of IKK depends upon phosphorylation at Ser177 and Ser181 in the activation loop of IKKβ (Ser176 and Ser180 in IKKα), which causes conformational changes, resulting in kinase activation (10-13).
