Related Product Information for anti-GSK-3beta antibody
Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3beta (GSK-3beta) is a unique serine/threonine kinase that is inactivated by phosphorylation. In response to insulin binding, PKB/AKT phosphorylates GSK-3beta on serine 9, which prevents GSK-3beta from phosphorylating glycogen synthase. Unphosphorylated glycogen synthase is active and able to synthesize glycogen. GSK-3beta is also unique in that it requires a substrate that has been phosphorylated by a distinct kinase before it can phosphorylate the substrate. This phosphate priming mechanism explains why phosphorylation of serine 9 inactivates GSK-3beta. The phosphorylated serine binds to the GSK-3beta priming phosphate position and prevents binding of alternative substrates. In addition to insulin signaling, GSK-3beta participates in the Wnt signaling pathway, where it forms a complex with axin, beta-catenin and adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) protein. In the presence of Wnts, GSK-3beta is unable to phosphorylate beta-catenin, which leads to stabilization of beta-catenin. The Wnt pathway inactivates GSK-3beta via the proteins, Dishevelled and FRAT, which disrupt the interaction of GSK-3beta with axin, beta-catenin, and APC. Clinically, there is considerable interest in GSK-3beta inhibitors because they may mimic the effect of insulin or reduce the hyperphosphorylation of Tau that is observed in Alzheimer's Disease.

Product Notes
The GSK-3beta gsk3b (Catalog #AAA77018) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The GSK-3beta polyclonal antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat, Bovine and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's GSK-3beta can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, WB (Western Blot), IHC (Immunohistochemistry), ICC (Immunocytochemistry). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the GSK-3beta gsk3b for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "GSK-3beta, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
