Experimental details: Western blot analysis of Akt-2 was performed by loading 25 µg of various whole cell lysates onto a 4-20% Tris-HCl polyacrylamide gel. Proteins were transferred to a PVDF membrane and blocked with 5% Milk/TBST for at least 1 hour. Membranes were probed with a mouse monoclonal antibody recognizing Akt-2 (Product # MA1-034) at a dilution of 1:1000 overnight at 4°C on a rocking platform. Membranes were washed in TBS-0.1%Tween 20 and probed with a goat anti-mouse-HRP secondary antibody (Product # 31430) at a dilution of 1:20,000 for at least one hour. Membranes were washed and chemiluminescent detection performed using Super Signal West Dura (Product # 34075).

Experimental details: Immunofluorescent analysis of AKT2 (green) showing staining in the cytoplasm and nucleus of Hela cells (right) compared to a negative control without primary antibody (left). Formalin-fixed cells were permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in TBS for 5-10 minutes and blocked with 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Cells were probed with an AKT2 monoclonal antibody (Product # MA1-034) in 3% BSA-PBS at a dilution of 1:20 and incubated overnight at 4 ºC in a humidified chamber. Cells were washed with PBST and incubated with a DyLight-conjugated secondary antibody in PBS at room temperature in the dark. F-actin (red) was stained with a fluorescent red phalloidin and nuclei (blue) were stained with Hoechst or DAPI. Images were taken at a magnification of 60x.

Experimental details: Immunohistochemistry was performed on biopsies of deparaffinized normal Human Medulla Oblongata and Human Esophageal cancer tissues. To expose target proteins heat induced antigen retrieval was performed using 10mM sodium citrate (pH6.0) buffer for 20 minutes at 95°C. Following antigen retrieval tissues were blocked in 10% normal goat serum (Product # 31873) for 20 minutes at room temperature. Tissues were then probed at a dilution of 1:200 with a mouse monoclonal antibody recognizing Akt-2 (Product # MA1-034) overnight at 4°C in a humidified chamber. Detection was performed using a goat anti-mouse HRP secondary antibody followed by colorimetric detection using DAB substrate. Tissues were counterstained with hematoxylin and prepped for mounting. Images were taken at 400X magnification. Results demonstrate cytoplasmic localization of Akt-2.

Experimental details: Chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis of Akt2 was performed using cross-linked chromatin from 1 x 106 HCT116 colon carcinoma cells treated with serum for 0, 15, 30, and 60 minutes. Immunoprecipitation was performed using a multiplex microplate Matrix ChIP assay (see reference for Matrix ChIP protocol: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22098709) with 1.0 µL/100 µL well volume of an Akt2 monoclonal antibody (Product # MA1-034). Chromatin aliquots from ~1 x 105 cells were used per ChIP pull-down. Quantitative PCR data were done in quadruplicate using 1 µL of eluted DNA in 2 µL SYBR real-time PCR reactions containing primers to amplify -15kb upstream of the Egr1 gene or exon-1 of Egr1. PCR calibration curves were generated for each primer pair from a dilution series of sheared total genomic DNA. Quantitation of immunoprecipitated chromatin is presented as signal relative to the total amount of input chromatin. Results represent the mean +/- SEM for three experiments. A schematic representation of the Egr-1 locus is shown above the data where boxes represent exons (black boxes = translated regions, white boxes = untranslated regions); the zigzag line represents an intron; and the straight line represents upstream sequence. Regions amplified by Egr-1 primers are represented by black bars. Data courtesy of the Innovators Program.

Experimental details: Immunoprecipitation of Akt-2 was performed on HeLa cells. The antigen:antibody complex was formed by incubating 750 µg whole cell lysate with 2 µg of mouse monoclonal antibody recognizing Akt-2 (Product # MA1-034) overnight on a rocking platform at 4øC. The immune-complex was then captured on 50 µl Protein A/G Plus Agarose (Product # 20423). Captured immune-complexes were then washed extensively and proteins eluted with 5X Reducing Sample Loading Dye (Product # 39000). Samples were then resolved on a 4-20% Tris-HCl polyacrylamide gel. Proteins were transferred to PVDF membrane and blocked with 5% Milk/TBS-0.1%Tween for at least 1 hour. Membranes were then probed with a mouse monoclonal antibody recognizing Akt-2 (Product # MA1-034) at a dilution of 1:1000 overnight rotating at 4øC. Membranes were washed in TBST and probed with Clean Blot IP Detection reagent (Product # 21230) at a dilution of 1:2000 for at least one hour. Membranes were washed and chemiluminescent detection performed using Super Signal West Dura (Product # 34075).
