Product Specifications

Background

Maternal embryonic leucine zipper kinase (MELK) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MELK gene. Maternal embryonic leucine-zipper kinase (MELK) is a key regulator of survival of stemlike GBM cells in vitro. MELK expression is increased in breast cancer tissue and this increase is also associated with poor patient survival, as predicted for a candidate oncogene.

Synonyms

Homeobox protein Hox-A5; Homeobox protein Hox-1C; HOXA5; HOX1C

Cross Reactivity

No cross-reactivity with other proteins.

Immunogen

E.coli-derived human MELK recombinant protein (Position: H66-Q629) .

Clonality

Polyclonal

Tissue Specificity

Ubiquitously expressed. Present at highest levels in the brain, at high levels in the placenta and testis, at intermediate levels in the intestine, ovary, skeletal muscle and thymus and at lower levels in heart, kidney, liver, lung, pancreas, prostate and spleen. In the kidney, it is widely expressed in tubules, but sparsely expressed in the glomerulus (PubMed:24676636) . Expression is significantly increased in renal biopsy specimens from idiopathic FSGS (PubMed:24676636) . Overexpressed in many tumor types including breast, colorectal, endometrial, hepatic, kidney, lung, ovarian and pancreatic tumors.

Applications

ELISA, IF, IHC, ICC, WB, Flow Cytometry

Field of Research

Cancer, Cell Cycle, Cell Cycle Inhibitors, Developmental Families, Domain Families, Epigenetics and Nuclear Signaling, p53 Pathway, Transcription

Purification

Immunogen affinity purified.

Concentration

Adding 0.2 ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500 μg/ml.

Form

Lyophilized

Reconstitution

Adding 0.2 ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500 μg/ml.

Function

Sequence-specific transcription factor which is part of a developmental regulatory system that provides cells with specific positional identities on the anterior-posterior axis. Also binds to its own promoter. Binds specifically to the motif 5'-CYYNATTA[TG]Y-3'.
