Anti-Akt2 Antibody

A polyclonal antibody raised in rabbits, this reagent targets Akt2 (also known as PKB beta), a serine/threonine kinase from the Akt family that plays a central role in insulin signaling, glucose metabolism, and cell survival pathways. Unconjugated and supplied by Antibodies.com as a 100 µl liquid volume, it is validated for Western blot, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, and ELISA applications across human, mouse, and rat samples. The polyclonal format allows the antibody to recognize multiple epitopes on the Akt2 protein, which generally yields stronger signal across both denatured and native targets and makes it a practical choice for laboratories characterizing PI3K/Akt pathway activity in metabolic disease and oncology research. Researchers commonly use this reagent to probe Akt2 phosphorylation status, subcellular localization, and expression changes in response to growth factor stimulation or insulin treatment. For best results, store refrigerated in working aliquots to preserve activity through repeated use, and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles that can degrade polyclonal antibodies.
