Application Notes
In Western blot, a band is seen at approx. 60 kDa. Prior to immunostaining paraffin tissues, antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0) is recommended. In Simple Western only 10 - 15 uL of the recommended dilution is used per data point. Separated by Size-Wes, Sally Sue/Peggy Sue.
Theoretical MW
60 kDa. Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Background
PKM2 (pyruvate kinase isozymes M1/M2), an isoform of pyruvate kinase, is a glycolytic enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of a phosphoryl group from phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to ADP, generating ATP and is expressed in proliferating cells, such as embryonic stem cells, embryonic carcinoma cells, as well as cancer cells. Other three pyruvate kinases includes PKL (liver and kidney), PKR (erythrocytes) and PKM1, (adult muscle, brain, bladder, and fibroblasts) which exist as stable tetramers, whereas, PKM2 subunits form tetramers as well as dimers, the dimeric form with higher Km value for PEP substrate stays inactive at physiological concentrations of PEP. The ratio between highly active tetrameric form and nearly inactive dimeric form determines whether glucose carbons are channeled to biosynthetic processes or used for glycolytic ATP production. Predominately localized in the cytoplasm, PKM2 translocate to nucleus upon apoptotic stimuli and this translocation mediated cell death is caspase independent, isoform-specific and independent of its enzymatic activity.
