Pkn2 Antibody - C-terminal region: FITC (ARP61895_P050-FITC)

Pkn2 is a PKC-related serine/threonine-protein kinase and Rho/Rac effector protein that participates in specific signal transduction responses in the cell. It plays a role in the regulation of cell cycle progression, actin cytoskeleton assembly, cell migration, cell adhesion, tumor cell invasion and transcription activation signaling processes. Pkn2 phosphorylates CTTN in hyaluronan-induced astrocytes and hence decreases CTTN ability to associate with filamentous actin, phosphorylates HDAC5, therefore lead to impair HDAC5 import. It is a direct RhoA target required for the regulation of the maturation of primordial junctions into apical junction formation in bronchial epithelial cells and is required for G2/M phases of the cell cycle progression and abscission during cytokinesis in a ECT2-dependent manner. It stimulates FYN kinase activity that is required for establishment of skin cell-cell adhesion during keratinocytes differentiation, regulates epithelial bladder cells speed and direction of movement during cell migration and tumor cell invasion, inhibits Akt pro-survival-induced kinase activity. It mediates Rho protein-induced transcriptional activation via the c-fos serum response factor (SRF) .

All conjugated antibodies should be stored in light-protected vials or covered with a light protecting material (i.e. aluminum foil) . Conjugated antibodies are stable for at least 12 months at 4C. If longer storage is desired (24 months), conjugates may be diluted with up to 50% glycerol and stored at -20C to -80C. Freezing and thawing conjugated antibodies will compromise enzyme activity as well as antibody binding.
