| Product Information | |
|---|---|
| Format | Purified |
| Control |
|
| Presentation | Liquid. Partially Purified rabbit Serum. Antibodies reactive with the Type I isozyme were present in the original antiSerum; these were removed by affinity chromatography on a column of immobilized Type I isozyme, and the affinity-depleted Serum restored to original volume. |
| Quality Level | MQ100 |
| Applications | |
|---|---|
| Application | Anti-Hexokinase Type II Antibody is an antibody against Hexokinase Type II for use in ELISA, IC & WB. |
| Key Applications |
|
| Application Notes | Western Blot: 1:5,000-1:10,000. Immunocytochemistry using indirect immunofluorescence. ELISA Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user. |
| Biological Information | |
|---|---|
| Immunogen | Recombinant rat Type II hexokinase. |
| Concentration | Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration. |
| Host | Rabbit |
| Specificity | Reacts with the Type II isozyme of rat hexokinase (102 kDa). No reactivity with the Type I or Type III isozymes of rat hexokinase by immunoblot or ELISA. Reactivity with human and hamster Type II isozyme has been confirmed by immunoblotting, and reactivity with Type II isozyme from other mammalian species is expected. |

| Entrez Gene Number |
|
| Entrez Gene Summary | Hexokinases phosphorylate glucose to produce glucose-6-phosphate, thus committing glucose to the glycolytic pathway. This gene encodes hexokinase 2, the predominant form found in skeletal muscle. It localizes to the outer membrane of mitochondria. Expression of this gene is insulin-responsive, and studies in rat suggest that it is involved in the increased rate of glycolysis seen in rapidly growing cancer cells. |

| UniProt Number |
|
| UniProt Summary | SIZE: 917 amino acids; 102380 Da SUBUNIT: Monomer (By similarity). SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Mitochondrion outer membrane (By similarity). Note=Its hydrophobic N-terminal sequence may be involved in membrane binding (By similarity). TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Predominant hexokinase isozyme expressed in insulin-responsive tissues such as skeletal muscle. DOMAIN: SwissProt: P52789 The N- and C-terminal halves of this hexokinase show extensive sequence similarity to each other. The catalytic activity is associated with the C-terminus while regulatory function is associated with the N-terminus. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the hexokinase family. MISCELLANEOUS: In vertebrates there are four major glucose- phosphorylating isoenzymes, designated hexokinase I, II, III and IV (glucokinase). |
