ULK2 Antibodies

AND ULK2 ELISA kits, ULK2 Proteins

Many biological assays use antibodies to detect ULK2, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with ULK2 in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop ULK2 antibodies...

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to ULK2 by testing them on tissues known to express ULK2 positively and negatively. Browse below to find the ULK2 antibody that suites your experiment. We have 3 of these antibodies and many publications and validation images.

If you cannot find antibodies that fit your needs, contact us for making custom antibodies. We have a full suite of custom antibody services covering from research to diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

ULK2 Overview

Facts about Serine/threonine-protein kinase ULK2.

ULK2 3D structure. Source: alphafold

Serine/threonine-protein kinase ULK2 (ULK2)

Acts upstream of phosphatidylinositol 3- kinase PIK3C3 to modulate the formation of autophagophores, the precursors of autophagosomes. Section of regulatory feedback loops in autophagy: acts both as a downstream effector and a negative regulator of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) through interaction with RPTOR.

Activated via phosphorylation by AMPK, also acts as a negative regulator of AMPK through phosphorylation of the AMPK subunits PRKAA1, PRKAB2 and PRKAG1. May phosphorylate ATG13/KIAA0652, FRS2, FRS3 and RPTOR; however these information need additional evidences.
