• Purification: Purified from goat serum by ammonium sulphate precipitation followed by antigen affinity chromatography using the immunizing peptide.
• Immunogen: The immunogen for this antibody is: C-STEALDNVLPSAQ
• UniProt ID: Q8IW41
• Tested applications: ELISA, IHC, IP, WB
• Application notes: Peptide ELISA: antibody detection limit dilution 1:32000.Western Blot:In transfected HEK293 transiently expressing either Mouse MK5 fused to GFP or the similar Mouse MK2 fused to GFP; only the expected band was observed in the MK5 lane after EB11927 labeling. Data obtained from Dr. M. B. Menon, Inst. Biochemistry, Hannover Medical School, Germany. Recommended concentration, 0.5-1ug/ml.Immunohistochemistry:In paraffin embedded Human Kidney shows brushborder staining in the PCT. Recommended concentration, 4-8ug/ml.Immunoprecipitation: MK5/ERK3 double knockout Mouse Embryonic Fibroblasts (MEFs) retrovirally transduced wiith Mk5/Erk3 or empty vector (GFP) were lysed from confluent plates and used for IP with 1.5ug EB11927 or EB11928. Western blots of the IP were labelled with mouse anti-MK5 (SC) or with rabbit anti-ERK3 serum (CST). An approx 55kDa of MK5 is only precipitated from lysates of those KO MEFs that have been rescued by the ERK3/MK5 expression constructas described in PMID: 22508986. Data obtained from Dr. M. B. Menon, Inst. Biochemistry, Hannover Medical School, Germany.

HEK293 lysate (10 ug protein in RIPA buffer) overexpressing Mouse MK5-GFP (first lane) or Mouse MK2-GFP (second lane) probed with orb1248427 (0.5 ug/ml) in right panel and with EB11928 (0.5 ug/ml) on left panel, Primary incubations were for 2 hours.

orb1248427 and EB11928 (1.5 ug) immunoprecipitations from lysates of MK5/ERK3 double knockout MEFs, with (third and fifth lanes) and without (fourth and sixth lanes) rescued MK5/ERK3 expression through retroviral transduction.
