Assay
Reference: J:84750 Corson LB, et al., Spatial and temporal patterns of ERK signaling during mouse embryogenesis. Development. 2003 Oct;130(19):4527-37
Assay type: Immunohistochemistry
MGI Accession ID: MGI:5696160
Gene symbol: Mapk1
Gene name: mitogen-activated protein kinase 1
Antibody: anti-Phospho-MAP Kinase (Thr183/Tyr185) (M8159)
Detection system: Biotinylated secondary antibody/[Strept]avidin coupled to horseradish peroxidase
Assay notes: Two antibodies were used for this study. Authors state the rabbit polyclonal ( MGI:2677398) was used in a majority of cases, but a mouse monoclonal ( MGI:3578364) may have been used. Both antibodies recognize more than one gene (Mapk1 andMapk3); both have been annotated.
