Phospho-CHK2 (Thr68) Antibody (PA5-17818) in ICC/IF
Immunofluorescent analysis of Phospho-Chk2 pThr68 (green) in HeLa cells either left untreated (left panel) or treated with 25 µg/mL anisomycin for 30 minutes (right panel). Formalin fixed cells were permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in TBS for 10 minutes at room temperature and blocked with 1% Blocker BSA (Product # 37525) for 15 minutes at room temperature. Cells were probed with a Phospho-Chk2 pThr68 p... View More

Product Specific Information
It is not recommended to aliquot this antibody.
This antibody is not cross-reactive with Chk2 phosphorylated at other sites.
This antibody was orginally validated as part of a Thermo Scientific Cellomics High Content Screening Kit. The antibody sold separately may have slightly different performance and may need to be further optimized for the best results.
Target Information
CHEK2 (CHK2) is a serine/threonine kinase and a component of the DNA damage checkpoint pathway. A mutation in CHK2 has been linked to cancer. CHK2 is activated by DNA damage and phosphorylates several modulators of cell cycle control including tumor suppressor proteins. In addition, Chk2 can phosphorylate BRCA1, allowing BRCA1 to restore survival after DNA damage. Chk2 is a putative tumor suppressor protein, with mutations in to the Chk2 gene linked to Li-Fraumeni syndrome, a familiar cancer usually associated with inherited mutations in TP53. Also, mutations in CHK2 are thought to confer a predisposition to sarcomas, breast cancer, and brain tumors.
