Info
| Catalogue Number | 151301 | 
| Applications | ELISA WB | 
| Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets | Polo-like-kinase protein (Plk) | 
| Synonyms | Polo Like Kinase 1; Serine/Threonine-Protein Kinase 13; EC 2.7.11.21; STPK13; PLK-1; Cell Cycle Regulated Protein Kinase; Polo Like Kinase; EC 2.7.11 | 
| Reactivity | Xenopus laevis | 
| Relevance | Polo-like kinase (Plx) is a mitotic regulator conserved from yeasts to humans. Many key cell cycle regulators such as p53, cdc25, cyclin B and the Anaphase Promoting Complex are directly targeted by Plx.The Anaphase promoting complex is responsible for the destruction of cyclins and other proteins involved with mitosis. | 
| Host | Mouse | 
| Immunogen | Baculo expressed Polo-like-kinase from Xenopus laevis | 
| Positive Control | Xenopus egg extract | 
| Subclass | IgG1 kappa | 
| Myeloma Used | Sp2/0-Ag14 | 
| Recommended Growing Conditions | DMEM + 5% FCS | 
| Strain | Balb/c | 
| Notes | Plx is activated by phosphorylation. AZ44 only detects the mitotic form of Plx (Xenopus laevis) which may be due to the recognition of a phosphorylated epitope. Recommended concentration: 1ug/ml | 
| Research Area | Cell Type or Organelle Marker |
