- Clone: BLK154/D4
- Tool type: Antibodies
- Tool sub-type: Primary antibody
- Class: Monoclonal
- Conjugate: Unconjugated
- Reactivity: Human
- Host: Mouse
- Application: WB
- Description: B lymphoid tyrosine kinase is a member of the src family of proto-oncogenes that are involved in cell proliferation and differentiation1. It is expressed in B cells during all stages of development and has a role in B-cell receptor signaling and B-cell development2,3. BLK also stimulates insulin synthesis and secretion in response to glucose by up regulating pancreatic beta-cell transcription factors.
- Immunogen: Recombinant protein corresponding to amino acids 53- 224 of human BLK
- Isotype: IgG1
- Research area: Apoptosis and autophagy
- Myeloma used: NS0
- For Research Use Only
