Target description

Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha isoform (UniProt: P42336; also known as EC:2.7.1.137, PI3-kinase subunit alpha, PI3K-alpha, PI3Kalpha, PtdIns-3-kinase subunit alpha, Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase 110 kDa catalytic subunit alpha, PtdIns-3-kinase subunit p110-alpha, p110alpha, Phosphoinositide 3-kinase alpha, Phosphoinositide-3-kinase catalytic alpha polypeptide, Serine/threonine protein kinase PIK3CA) is encoded by the PIK3CA gene (Gene ID: 5290) in human. The PI 3-kinases (PI3-K) are ubiquitous, heterodimeric enzymes that play a crucial role in the regulation of many cellular processes, including cell growth, proliferation, motility, and survival. They are divided into three classes based on their structure and substrate specificity. Class I PI 3-K contain a 110 kDa catalytic subunit and an 85 kDa regulatory subunit. The catalytic subunit associates with an 85 kDa adaptor/regulatory subunit that is essential for interaction of these PI3-K with receptor tyrosine kinases and intracellular proteins. Following ligand binding to receptor and activation of receptor tyrosine kinase, the p85/p110 complex is recruited to the receptor by interaction of the SH2 domain of p85 with consensus phosphotyrosine residues on receptor tyrosine kinase. The interaction of a receptor tyrosine kinase with the p85 subunit relieves the inhibitory effect of p85 on the p110 catalytic subunit and the activated PI3-K phosphorylates phosphoinositol (PI) substrates to produce PIP, PIP2, and PIP3. These molecules act as second messengers for downstream signal transduction. Class IA PI3-K signal transduction is considered to be important in mediating insulin responses in cells. Any loss in the activity of these kinases can result in metabolic defects linked to type 2 diabetes. Inhibition of PI 3-kinase and overexpression of dominant negative PI3-K mutants are shown to block many of the physiological responses to insulin. Overactivation of PI3-K pathway can perturb the control mechanisms for cell growth and survival and contribute to metastatic competence and resistance to chemotherapy. Abnormal activation of PI3-K is seen in several forms of cancer. About 30% of solid tumors contain mutations in the catalytic unit of their PI3-K, which increase its enzymatic activity and produce excessive Akt signal transduction. This ZooMAbZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Physical form

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS, 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.

Reconstitution

300 μg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Storage and Stability

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
