Anti-PTEN-induced Kinase 1 (PTEN-induced Putative Kinase 1, PTEN-induced Putative Kinase Protein 1,

Phosphatase and Tensin Homolog (PTEN) dephosphorylates lipids. Malfunctions in this contribute to many human cancers. PTEN induced putative kinase 1 (Pink1) was first discovered when researching the PTEN signaling pathway, thus Pink1 is also involved in many human cancers. It is found in the mitochondria and its homozygous C-terminus mutation has been implicated in the early development of Parkinson's disease. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: 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 and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and add glycerol (40-50%) Freeze at -20°C or colder. 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.
