Contents | Each vial contains 5mg BSA, 0.9mg NaCl, 0.2mg Na2HPO4, 0.05mg NaN3. |
Immunogen | E.coli-derived human PBK recombinant protein (Position: N71-V322). Human PBK shares 89% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse PBK. |
Purification | Immunogen affinity purified. |
Cross Reactivity | No cross reactivity with other proteins |
Storage | At -20˚C for one year. After r˚Constitution, at 4˚C for one month. It˚Can also be aliquotted and stored frozen at -20˚C for a longer time.Avoid repeated freezing and thawing. |
Sequence Similarities | Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. STE Ser/Thr protein kinase family. MAP kinase kinase subfamily. |
Name | PBK |
---|---|
Synonyms | TOPK |
Function | Phosphorylates MAP kinase p38. Seems to be active only in mitosis. May also play a role in the activation of lymphoid cells. When phosphorylated, forms a complex with TP53, leading to TP53 destabilization and attenuation of G2/M checkpoint during doxorubicin- induced DNA damage. |
Tissue Location | Expressed in the testis and placenta. In the testis, restrictedly expressed in outer cell layer of seminiferous tubules. |

Background
Lymphokine-activated killer T-cell-originated protein kinase, also known as TOPK or PBK, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PBK gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a serine/threonine kinase related to the dual specific mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MAPKK) family. It is mapped to 8p21.1. PBK can mediate cell growth through histone H3 modification. Evidence suggests that mitotic phosphorylation is required for its catalytic activity. The encoded protein may be involved in the activation of lymphoid cells and support testicular functions, with a suggested role in the process of spermatogenesis. Overexpression of this gene has been implicated in tumorigenesis.
