Scientific Data Images for Human/Mouse/Rat MKK6 Antibody
Detection of Human/Mouse/Rat MKK6 by Western Blot.
Western blot shows lysates of HepG2 human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line, C6 rat glioma cell line, and B16-F1 mouse melanoma cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.1 µg/mL Goat Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat MKK6 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF16041) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF109). For additional reference, recombinant human MKK6 (2 ng) was included. A specific band for MKK6 was detected at approximately 39 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.Western Blot Shows Human MKK6 Specificity by Using Knockout Cell Line.
Western blot shows lysates of HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma parental cell line and MKK6 knockout HeLa cell line (KO). PVDF membrane was probed with 0.2 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat MKK6 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF16041) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF017). A specific band was detected for MKK6 at approximately 39 kDa (as indicated) in the parental HeLa cell line, but is not detectable in knockout HeLa cell line. GAPDH (Catalog # AF5718) is shown as a loading control. This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.Applications for Human/Mouse/Rat MKK6 Antibody

Background: MKK6
Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 6 (MKK6), also known as MEK6, and the closely related MKK3 are activated by pro-inflammatory cytokines and environmental stresses (1, 2). Both MKK3 and MKK6 are dual specificity protein kinases, phosphorylating and activating the p38 MAP kinases at Thr and Tyr positions within the phosphoacceptor sequence Thr-Gly-Tyr (3). Activation of MKK6 occurs through phosphorylation at Ser207 and Thr211 (4) by several upstream MAPK kinase kinases, including ASK1 and TAK1 (5, 6). Purification of E. coli-expressed wild-type active MKK6 capable of p38 alpha phosphorylation has been previously noted (7).
