STK16 Recombinant Protein

Source : Escherichia Coli. STK16 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 329 amino acids (1-305 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 37.2kDa.STK16 is fused to a 24 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Serine/threonine-protein kinase 16 (STK16) is a membrane-associated protein kinase which phosphorylates on serine and threonine residues. STK16 is involved in secretory vesicle trafficking or intracellular signaling. Furthermore, the STK16 protein may have a role in regulating stromal-epithelial interactions which occur during ductal morphogenesis in the mammary gland. STK16 can autophosphorylate on Tyr residue; it is however unclear whether STK16 has tyrosine-protein kinase toward other proteins. STK16 may also be involved in TGF-beta signaling.
