Background of MEKK2
MAP3K2, mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 2, also known as MEKK2, belongs to the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) kinase kinase gene family, which is involved in regulating multiple MAPK signaling pathways. Endogenous MAP3K2 localized mainly to the cytosol of unstimulated HeLa cells and rat fibroblasts. The MAP3K2 gene is mapped to chromosome 2 by the International Radiation Hybrid Mapping Consortium. MAP3K2 is a major upstream activator of the JNK, MAPK cascade. MAP3K2 was identifies as 1 of 6 kinases that regulate different steps of the caveolar cycle. Silencing of MAP3K2 strongly reduced kiss-and-run dynamics, leading to an accumulation of caveolar structures at the cell surface without affecting caveolae coat assembly or clustering.
Antibody Validation

Figure 1. Western blot analysis of MEKK2 using anti-MEKK2 antibody (PA1499).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel) / 90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 50ug of sample under reducing conditions.

Lane 4: human Raji whole cell lysates
After Electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a Nitrocellulose membrane at 150mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% Non-fat Milk/ TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-MEKK2 antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # PA1499) at 0.5 μg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:10000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit (Catalog # EK1002) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for MEKK2 at approximately 78KD. The expected band size for MEKK2 is at 70KD.

Question
We are currently using anti-MEKK2/MAP3K2 antibody PA1499 for rat tissue, and we are well pleased with the WB results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says human, mouse, rat. Is it likely that the antibody can work on monkey tissues as well?

Answer
The anti-MEKK2/MAP3K2 antibody (PA1499) has not been validated for cross reactivity specifically with monkey tissues, though there is a good chance of cross reactivity. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in monkey you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.
