Anti-JAK2 antibody, Mouse monoclonal

Monoclonal Anti-JAK2 (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the hybridoma 10.1.5 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from immunized BALB/c mice. The Janus kinases (Jak) family of proteins includes four members: Jak1, Jak2, Jak3 and the tyrosine kinase 2 (Tyk2). Jak2 is ubiquitously expressed. It is also expressed in normal and neoplastic mammary epithelial cells.

synthetic peptide corresponding to an internal sequence of human JAK2 (GeneID 3717), conjugated to KLH.

Monoclonal Anti-JAK2 antibody produced in mouse has been used in:

• immunoblotting
• immunocytochemistry
• flow cytometry

Janus kinases engage in interactions with the intracellular tails of several cytokine receptors, which result in the activation of members of the signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) family of transcription factors. The latter bind specific cognate sequences at the promoter region of genes that regulate proliferation and differentiation. JAK activation plays an important role in cell proliferation, differentiation, migration and apoptosis. A member of this family, JAK2, has been found to induce signaling regulating gene expression of various pro-survival and anti-apoptotic molecules. Furthermore, inhibition of JAK2 signaling triggered cell death in human cancer cells. These findings indicate JAK2 inhibition as a potential therapeutic approach for various cancers.
