Ref. EK-ES20150

Product Information

• Name: Chk2 (Phospho Thr432) rabbit pAb
• Synonyms: Serine/threonine-protein kinase Chk2 (EC 2.7.11.1;CHK2 checkpoint homolog;Cds1 homolog;Hucds1;hCds1;Checkpoint kinase 2)
• Brand: ELK Biotechnology
• Description: catalytic activity:ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.,cofactor:Magnesium.,disease:Defects in CHEK2 are associated with Li-Fraumeni syndrome 2 (LFS2) [MIM:609265]; a highly penetrant familial cancer phenotype usually associated with inherited mutations in p53/TP53.,disease:Defects in CHEK2 are found in some patients with osteosarcoma (OSRC) [MIM:259500].,disease:Defects in CHEK2 are found in some patients with prostate cancer (CaP) [MIM:176807].,enzyme regulation:Rapidly phosphorylated on Thr-68 by MLTK in response to DNA damage and to replication block. Kinase activity is also up-regulated by autophosphorylation.,function:Regulates cell cycle checkpoints and apoptosis in response to DNA damage, particularly to DNA double-strand breaks. Inhibits CDC25C phosphatase by phosphorylation on 'Ser-216', preventing the entry into mitosis. May also play a role in meiosis. Regulates the TP53 tumor suppressor through phosphorylation at 'Thr-18' and 'Ser-20'.,similarity:Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. CAMK Ser/Thr protein kinase family. CHK2 subfamily.,similarity:Contains 1 FHA domain.,similarity:Contains 1 protein kinase domain.,subcellular location:Isoform 10 is present throughout the cell.,tissue specificity:High expression is found in testis, spleen, colon and peripheral blood leukocytes. Low expression is found in other tissues.,
