Application Notes

This product is intended for use as a positive control in Western Blot. Overexpression of the target protein was confirmed using an antibody to DDK (FLAG) epitope tag (NBP1-71705) present on the protein construct.

Each vial of cell lysate contains 100ug of total protein which should be sufficient for 20-50 reactions. Depending on over-expression level, antibody affinity and detection system, some lysates can go as low as 0.1 ug per load. We recommend starting with 5ug of cell lysate. Add an equal amount of cell lysate and 2X SDS Sample buffer and boil the SDS samples for 10 minutes before loading.

TMW

54.3 kDa.
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Background: PI 3-Kinase p55 gamma

PI 3-Kinase p55 gamma, also referred to as PI3Kp55 gamma or p55gamma, is a regulatory subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-Kinase / PI3K) (1). Class 1A PI 3-Kinases are heterodimers consisting of one 110 kDa catalytic subunit (p110 alpha, beta, or delta) and one regulatory subunit (p85 alpha, p85 beta, p55 alpha, p50 alpha, or p55 gamma) (1). The p55 gamma regulatory subunit is encoded by the PIK3R3 gene and is predominantly expressed in the brain (2). Human PI 3 Kinase p55 gamma protein is 461 amino acids (aa) in length with a theoretical molecular weight of ~54 kDa (3). Structurally, PI 3-Kinase p55 gamma contains a proline rich domain (aa 34 - 44) and two Src homology domains (SH2, aa 65 - 160 and 358 - 452) (1,3). In general, Class 1A PI 3-Kinases are activated through the binding of membrane-bound tyrosine kinase receptors, such as insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) (1,2,4). Activation of PI 3-Kinase results in the phosphorylation of phosphatidyl inositol and a downstream signaling cascade of the AKT/mTOR pathway (2,4). PI 3-Kinase pathway activation results in a number of cellular responses including proliferation, survival, growth, migration, membrane trafficking, and metabolism (2). The PI3-Kinase/AKT/mTOR pathway has been shown to be dysregulated in a number of cancers, largely through loss or inactivation of the tumor suppressor PTEN (4). Furthermore, one study found that anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) promoted cell migration during brain development specifically through the p55 gamma regulatory subunit of PI 3-Kinase (5).

HEK293T cells in 10-cm dishes were transiently transfected with a non-lipid polymer transfection reagent specially designed and manufactured for large volume DNA transfection. Transfected cells were cultured for 48hrs before collection. The cells were lysed in modified RIPA buffer (25mM Tris-HCl pH7.6, 150mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 1mM EDTA, 1xProteinase inhibitor cocktail mix, 1mM PMSF and 1mM Na3VO4, and then centrifuged to clarify the lysate. Protein concentration was measured by BCA protein assay kit.

This product is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis. Lysates are guaranteed for 6 months from date of receipt.
