GSK-3α/β is a ubiquitously expressed serine/threonine kinase that can phosphorylate a wide range of substrates. While GSK-3 was initially shown to regulate energy metabolism through phosphorylation of glycogen synthase, it has been shown that the enzyme has a wide variety of substrates in vivo and regulates signaling pathways that control cell growth, development, apoptosis, and oxidative stress responses. Each isoform if encoded by separate alleles; the isoforms show 66% homology.

- Application
-
WB - Quality tested
IP - Verified - Recommended Usage
-
Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by Western blotting. For Western blotting, the suggested use of this reagent is 0.1 - 1.0 µg per ml. For immunoprecipitation, the suggested use of this reagent is 2.0 µg per ml. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.
- Application Notes
-
This clone recognizes both a and ß isoforms of GSK-3 by both WB and IP.
This clone failed to stain PFA-fixed HeLa cells that were permeabilized with methanol or Triton-X. We therefore do not recommend using this clone for ICC. - RRID
