Lysate Details for Array

• Type: Overexpression

Notes

HEK293T cells in 10-cm dishes were transiently transfected with a non-lipid polymer transfection reagent specially designed and manufactured for large volume DNA transfection. Transfected cells were cultured for 48hrs before collection. The cells were lysed in modified RIPA buffer (25mM Tris-HCl pH7.6, 150mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 1mM EDTA, 1xProteinase inhibitor cocktail mix, 1mM PMSF and 1mM Na3VO4, and then centrifuged to clarify the lysate. Protein concentration was measured by BCA protein assay kit.This product is manufactured by and sold under license from OriGene Technologies and its use is limited solely for research purposes.

Background

Proline Rich Akt Substrate (PRAS40) is a 40 kDa substrate of Akt. Akt and PRAS40 can be found in the phosphoinositide 3 kinase (PI3K) pathway, which plays a role in glucose uptake, cell growth, and apoptosis inhibition. PRAS40 is a 14-3-3 binding protein that reacts with insulin, but whose precise function is not yet known. It may bind SH3 and WW domain containing proteins resulting in a change of function. Activated Akt phosphorylates PRAS40 on threonine 246. Mutation of PRAS40 threonine 246 has been shown to be apoptotic.
