Specifications
Host Species:
Rabbit
Species Reactivity:
Human, Mouse, Rat
Immunogen:
PINK1 antibody was raised against a 16 amino acid peptide near the amino terminus of human PINK1.
The immunogen is located within amino acids 120 - 170 of PINK1.
Conjugate:
Unconjugated
Tested Applications:
ELISA, IF, IHC-P, WB
Application Note:
PINK1 antibody can be used for detection of PINK1 by Western blot at 1 - 2 μg/ml. Antibody can also be used for immunohistochemistry starting at 5 μg/mL. For immunofluorescence start at 20 μg/mL.
Antibody validated: Western Blot in human, mouse, and rat samples; Immunohistochemistry in mouse samples and Immunofluorescence in mouse samples. All other applications and species not yet tested.
Specificity:
PINK1 antibody is human, mouse and rat reactive. At least two isoforms are known to exist; this antibody will only detect the longer isoform. PINK1 antibody will detect the cleaved and uncleaved form of PINK1.

Background:
The PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1) is a serine/threonine protein kinase that localizes to mitochondria and is thought to protect cells from stress-induced mitochondrial dysfunction (reviewed in 1). PINK1 recruits the E3 ubiquitin ligase Parkin to mitochondria to initiate mitophagy, an autophagic process that clears damaged mitochondria within a cell (2). PINK1 is cleaved by the mitochondrial protease PARL (3). Mutations in this gene cause one form of autosomal recessive early-onset Parkinson disease (4).
