Anti-CSNK2B Antibody Picoband® Fluoro647 Conjugated

Casein kinase II subunit beta is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CSNK2B gene. This gene encodes the beta subunit of casein kinase II, a ubiquitous protein kinase which regulates metabolic pathways, signal transduction, transcription, translation, and replication. The enzyme is composed of three subunits, alpha, alpha prime and beta, which form a tetrameric holoenzyme. The alpha and alpha prime subunits are catalytic, while the beta subunit serves regulatory functions. The enzyme localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 4; Methyl-CpG-binding endonuclease 1; Methyl-CpG-binding protein MBD4; Mismatch-specific DNA N-glycosylase; MBD4; MED1

Mismatch-specific DNA N-glycosylase involved in DNA repair. Has thymine glycosylase activity and is specific for G:T mismatches within methylated and unmethylated CpG sites. Can also remove uracil or 5-fluorouracil in G:U mismatches. Has no lyase activity. Was first identified as methyl-CpG-binding protein.
