Background Information
MARK2 is also named as EMK1(ELKL motif kinase 1), Par1b and belongs to the CAMK Ser/Thr protein kinase family. Par1b/MARK2 plays a critical role in neuronal polarity in the process of axon specification from multiple candidate neurites using primary cultures of mammalian hippocampal neurons(PMID:20194617). It has 16 isoforms produced by alternative promoter usage and alternative splicing with the molecular mass of 77-90kDa and can exsit as a dimer(PMID:16803889).

Reviews
What customers say
The single review rates this antibody 4/5. It performed reasonably well in Western Blot at a 1:250 dilution but was not well suited for immunofluorescence at 1:100 in the U251-MG cell line. The reviewer suggested this may be due to a large fraction of soluble MARK2 protein, which can limit IF signal. Overall, it is a solid choice for WB but less reliable for IF in this particular cell type.
The reviews below have been submitted by verified Proteintech customers who received an incentive for providing their feedback.
Lucas (Verified Customer) (08-28-2025) | The antibody is working reasonably in WB, but is not really suitable for IF, at least in the U251-MG cell line. This could be due to a large fraction of soluble MARK2 protein.
