Whole cell extracts (15 µg total protein) from the indicated cell lines were resolved by 4-12% Bis-Tris gel electrophoresis, transferred to a .45 µm PVDF membrane, and probed with 1.0 µg/mL (1:500 dilution) of Purified anti-GSK-3α/β Antibody, clone W17173C, overnight at 4°C. Proteins were visualized by chemiluminescence detection using HRP Goat anti-rat IgG Antibody (Cat. No. 405405) at a 1:3000 dilution. Direct-Blot™ HRP anti-GAPDH Antibody (Cat. No. 607904) was used as a loading control at a 1:10000 dilution (lower). Lane M: Molecular Weight marker. -
Whole cell extracts (250 µg total protein) prepared from HeLa cells were immunoprecipitated overnight with 2.0 µg of clone W17173C or with Purified Rat IgG2a, κ Isotype Control Antibody (Cat. No. 400502). The resulting IP fractions and whole cell extract input (5%) were resolved by 4-12% Bis-Tris gel electrophoresis, transferred to a .45 µm PVDF membrane, and probed with a separate anti-GSK-3 α/β antibody raised with a different immunizing GSK sequence.

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
