Anti-Blk

Blk is a Src family protein tyrosine kinase expressed in all stages of B cell development (1,2). Activation of B cells by various ligands is accompanied by activation of Blk (3). It has been suggested that Blk is involved in the control of B cell differentiation and proliferation (4,5). Except expressed in B cell, Blk transcripts were also detected in human thymocytes but not in mature T cells, implicating that Blk may play an important role in thymopoiesis (6). Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1:1000, Incubate membrane with diluted antibody in 1X TBS, 5% BSA, 0.1% Tween-20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight. , Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
