Applications/Dilutions

• Dilutions:
  • Flow Cytometry
• Application Notes: Optimal dilution of this antibody should be experimentally determined. For optimal results using our Tandem dyes, please avoid prolonged exposure to light or extreme temperature fluctuations. These can lead to irreversible degradation or decoupling. When staining intracellular targets, specific attention to the fixation and permeabilization steps in your flow protocol may be required. Please contact our technical support team at technical@novusbio.com if you have any questions.

Background

Glycogen synthase kinase 3beta (GSK-3 beta) is a Serine/Threonine protein kinas involved in the insulin and wingless pathways (1-2). Originally identified as a regulator of glycogen synthase, it has been shown to regulate a diverse array of cellular functions. GSK-3 beta activity is down regulated by phosphorylation on Serine 9 by PKB, or activated by phosphorylation on Tyrosine 216. Once activated, the protein can phosphorylate p53, c-jun, heat shock factor-1 and cyclin D1 (3-4). It is also known to phosphorylate Tau in Allzheimer's disease. Additionally, increased GSK-3 beta protein levels are found in Alzheimer's disease brains.
