Product Specifications

Immunogen

TOR/TOR/mTOR [p Ser2448] Antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a phosphorylated synthetic peptide corresponding a c-terminal region near Serine 2448 of human TOR/mTOR. (Uniprot: P42345)

Reactivity Notes

Reactivity against TOR/mTOR from other species has not been determined, however, reactivity with mouse is suggested based on protein sequence homologies

Modification

p Ser2448

Localization

Cell Membrane and Cytoplasmic

Specificity

Reactivity occurs with phosphorylated mTOR from human derived tissues and cells. Reactivity against mTOR from other species has not been determined, however, reactivity with mouse and rat is suggested based on protein sequence homologies.

Clonality

Polyclonal

Host

Rabbit

Isotype

IgG

Description

This is an affinity purified antibody produced by immunoaffinity chromatography using the immunizing peptide after immobilization to a solid phase

Store vial at -20C prior to opening. Aliquot contents and freeze at -20C or below for extended storage. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use.

Scientific Data Images for TOR/mTOR [p Ser2448] Antibody

Western Blot: TOR/mTOR [p Ser2448] Antibody [NB600-607] - Affinity Purified TOR/TOR/mTOR [p Ser2448] antibody is shown to detect a 250 kDa band (indicated) corresponding to phosphorylated human TOR/mTOR present in a 293T whole cell lysates. Cells were serum-starved for 24 hours prior to harvest. ~20 ug of lysate was loaded per lane for SDS-PAGE. Untreated cells are shown in lane 1, whereas cells in lane 2 were treated with IGF-1 (100 ng/ml) for 20 min prior to harvest. Follow reaction of antibody with a 1:2000 dilution of HRP Goat-a-Rabbit IgG for visualization.
Immunohistochemistry: TOR/mTOR [p Ser2448] Antibody [NB600-607] - affinity purified TOR/TOR/mTOR [p Ser2448] antibody was used at 5 ug/ml to detect signal in a variety of tissues including multi-human, multi-brain and multi-cancer slides. This image shows moderate staining of proximal convoluted tubules of the kidney (40X). Tissue was formalin-fixed and paraffin embedded. The image shows localization of the antibody as the precipitated red signal, with a hematoxylin purple nuclear counterstain.

Western Blot: TOR/mTOR [p Ser2448] Antibody [NB600-607]

Western Blot: TOR/mTOR [p Ser2448] Antibody [NB600-607] - Rapamycin reduces mTOR phosphorylation induced by TII. Whole-cell lysates were prepared from astrocytes activated with TII for 2 h. 10 nM Rapamycin was added at the beginning of the experiment and equal amounts of protein were analyzed by western blot for phosphorylated mTOR kinase (p-mTOR) (upper gel) and consequently for beta-actin (lower gel).

Background: TOR

Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a serine and threonine protein kinase that regulates numerous cellular functions, in particular, the initiation of protein translation. Rapamycin is a natural product macrolide that induces G1 growth arrest in yeast, Drosophila, and mammalian cells. mTOR is one of a family of proteins involved in cell cycle progression, DNA recombination, and DNA damage detection. In rat, mTOR is a 245-kD protein referred to as RAFT1 with significant homology to the S. cerevisiae protein TOR1 and has been shown to associate with the immunophilin FKBP12 in a rapamycin-dependent fashion. The FKBP12-rapamycin complex is known to inhibit progression through the G1 cell cycle stage by interfering with mitogenic signaling pathways involved in G1 progression in several cell types, as well as in yeast. The binding of mTOR to FKBP12-rapamycin correlates with the ability of these ligands to inhibit cell cycle progression.
