Background

Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a serine and threonine protein kinase that regulates numerous cellular functions, in particular, the initiation of protein translation. Rapamycin is a natural product macrolide that induces G₁ growth arrest in yeast, Drosophila, and mammalian cells. mTOR has a long list of synonyms including FK506 binding protein12 - rapamycin associated protein 1, FK506 binding protein12 - rapamycin associated protein 2, FRAP1, FRAP2, RAFT1, RAPT1 and/or FKBP12-rapamycin associated protein (FRAP). mTOR is one of a family of proteins involved in cell cycle progression, DNA recombination, and DNA damage detection. In rat, mTOR is a 245-kD protein referred to as RAFT1 with significant homology to the Saccharomyces cerevisiae protein TOR1 and has been shown to associate with the immunophilin FKBP12 in a rapamycin-dependent fashion. The FKBP12-rapamycin complex is known to inhibit progression through the G₁ cell cycle stage by interfering with mitogenic signaling pathways involved in G₁ progression in several cell types, as well as in yeast. The binding of mTOR to FKBP12-rapamycin correlates with the ability of these ligands to inhibit cell cycle progression.

Target Details

Gene Name: MTOR - View All MTOR Products

Reactivity: Human

Immunogen Type: Conjugated Peptide

Immunogen: This affinity purified antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to an internal region near amino acids 2430-2460 of human mTOR.

Purity/Specificity: This is an affinity purified antibody produced by immunoaffinity chromatography using the immunizing peptide after immobilization to a solid phase. Reactivity occurs with both phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated forms of mTOR at S2448 from human derived tissues and cells. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross reactivity with mTOR protein from rat and mouse based on 100% homology with the immunizing sequence. Expect partial reactivity against mTOR homologues from zebrafish (94%) and dog (89%). Reactivity against homologues from other sources is not known.

Application Details

Tested Applications: ELISA, WB

Application Note: This affinity purified mTOR antibody has been tested for use in ELISA and western blotting. ELISA data demonstrate reactivity against both phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated mTOR at S2448 and western blotting shows a band at approximately 250 kDa. Reactivity in other immunoassays is unknown.
