Background of PAK1
Serine/threonine-protein kinase PAK 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PAK1 gene. PAK proteins are critical effectors that link RhoGTPases to cytoskeleton reorganization and nuclear signaling. PAK proteins, a family of serine/threonine p21-activated kinases, include PAK1, PAK2, PAK3 and PAK4. These proteins serve as targets for the small GTP binding proteins Cdc42 and Rac and have been implicated in a wide range of biological activities. PAK1 regulates cell motility and morphology. Alternative transcripts of this gene have been found, but their full-length natures have not yet been determined. The PAK1 gene is mapped to 11q13-q14 by inclusion within a mapped clone.
Antibody Validation
Boster validates all antibodies on WB, IHC, ICC, Immunofluorescence, and ELISA with known positive control and negative samples to ensure specificity and high affinity, including thorough antibody incubations.

Western blot analysis of PAK1 using anti-PAK1 antibody (PA1563).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 10% SDS-PAGE gel at 80V (Stacking gel) / 120V (Resolving gel) for 2 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 30 ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: human Hela whole cell lysates,
Lane 2: human A431 whole cell lysates,
Lane 3: human HEK293 whole cell lysates,
Lane 4: human Jurkat whole cell lysates.
After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% non-fat milk/TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-PAK1 antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (PA1563) at 0.5 μg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody (Catalog # BA1054) at a dilution of 1:5000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an ECL Plus Western Blotting Substrate (Catalog # AR1196-200) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for PAK1 at approximately 68 kDa. The expected band size for Bcl-XS/BCL2L1 is at 61 kDa.

Asked: 2020-04-27
Answer
According to literature cervix carcinoma does express PAK1. According to Uniprot.org, PAK1 is expressed in middle temporal gyrus, placenta, cervix carcinoma, leukemic t-cell, cervix carcinoma erythroleukemia, liver, brain, among other tissues. Regarding which tissues have PAK1 expression, here are a few articles citing expression in various tissues:
Brain, Pubmed ID: 23503467
Cervix carcinoma, Pubmed ID: 16964243, 18669648

Asked: 2019-08-15
Answer
The anti-PAK1 antibody (PA1563) has not been tested for cross reactivity specifically with dog tissues, though there is a good chance of cross reactivity. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in dog you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.
