Antibodies that target the mTOR pathway
 
mTOR (mammalian Target of Rapamycin) was originally identified in Saccharomyces cerevisiae where mutations of the protein kinase, TOR, confer rapamycin resistance. mTOR is a large (>250 kDa) class IV PI-3 kinase family member with protein kinase activity, but lacks any lipid kinase activity. mTOR acts to integrate mitogenic and nurtient signals to regulate cell growth, metabolism, and survival. The details of how mTOR carries out these functions is not well understood.
 
Detection of mTOR by immunoblotting.
Sample: Whole cell lysate (50 mg) from HEK293 cells. Primary antibody: Anti-mTOR/FRAP (Ab-2) Mouse mAb (Cat. No. OP97) (2 mg/ml). Detection: chemiluminescence
