---|---|
Purity | Anti-PI4KII alpha was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity chromatography. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with human, mouse, and rat based on 100% sequence homology. Cross-reactivity with PI4KII alpha from other sources has not been determined. |
Storage Condition | Store vial at -20° C prior to opening. Aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below for extended storage. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use. |
Precautions Note | This product is for research use only and is not intended for therapeutic or diagnostic applications. |
Name | PI4K2A |
---|---|
Function | Membrane-bound phosphatidylinositol-4 kinase (PI4-kinase) that catalyzes the phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) to phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P), a lipid that plays important roles in endocytosis, Golgi function, protein sorting and membrane trafficking and is required for prolonged survival of neurons. Besides, phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) to phosphatidylinositol 4- phosphate (PI4P) is the first committed step in the generation of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), a precursor of the second messenger inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3). |

Background
PI4KII alpha contributes to the overall PI4-kinase activity of the cell. It contributes to the production of InsP3 in stimulated cells. A member of PI3/PI4-kinase family, PI4KII alpha is widely expressed with the highest amount of expression in the kidney, brain, heart, skeletal muscle, and placenta. It is associated with the BLOC-1 and AP-3 complexes. Anti-PI4KII alpha antibody is ideal for investigators interested in Kinase and Phosphatase Antibodies.
