Overview:
PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homolog) is a tumor suppressor that is frequently mutated in a large number of cancers (1). PTEN has phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate 3-phosphatase activity and contains a tensin like domain as well as a catalytic domain similar to that of the dual specificity protein tyrosine phosphatases. Unlike most of the protein tyrosine phosphatases, PTEN preferentially dephosphorylates phosphoinositide substrates and is responsible for negatively regulating the intracellular levels of phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate in cells. PTEN functions as a tumor suppressor by negatively regulating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway (2).

也就是说只要是兔子产生的抗体，羊抗兔（也叫抗抗体或者2抗）都可与之结合。
兔子产生的是一级抗体
羊的为二级抗体
在试验中，二抗经常被做了手脚，打上了标记，比如辣根过氧化物酶，经常被用在ELISA，WESTERN等经典的生物学试验中。
