PBK phosphorylates MAP kinase p38. PBK itself is phosphorylated and appears to be active only during the mitotic phase of the cell cycle. When phosphorylated PBK may interact with TP53. PBK may play a role in the activation of lymphoid cells and is found to expressed in many highly proliferative cell lines.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe standard is affinity purified.\u003cbr\u003e\nREACH authorisation\u003cbr\u003e\nAbcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.\u003cbr\u003e\nIt is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions-+4°C, Appropriate long-term storage conditions-+4°C, Storage information-+4°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nPDZ Binding Kinase (PBK) also known as TOPK is a serine\/threonine kinase with a molecular mass of approximately 36 kDa. It performs phosphorylation on certain proteins influencing their function localization or interaction with other proteins. PBK locates mainly in the testes placenta and various tumors but also expresses in smaller amounts in normal tissues such as the liver and brain. The kinase is cell cycle-dependent with activity peaking during mitosis where it plays a role by interacting with the mitotic spindle apparatus.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nPBK acts as part of cellular proliferation and differentiation processes. It can form complexes with other proteins enhancing its function and stability. The kinase significantly contributes to cell growth mainly in rapidly dividing cells. PBK influences processes like spermatogenesis in testes and placental development. PBK stabilizes certain cyclins and links with proteins such as p38 MAP kinase showing a role in stress response pathways.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nPBK integrates into the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway and interacts with the tumor progression pathway. These pathways are critical for transmitting signals from the surface to the nucleus affecting cell fate decisions. PBK connects with proteins like JNK and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) displaying its importance in transmitting stress and growth signals. These interactions place PBK as a node linking growth factors and extracellular signals to cellular responses.\u003cbr\u003e\nPBK is significantly associated with cancer development and progression such as in prostate cancer and glioma. In these conditions PBK often exhibits overexpression facilitating enhanced proliferation and survival of tumor cells. The connection to proteins like Cdc2\/cyclin B1 promotes unchecked cell cycle progression often found in neoplasms. PBK's role in these disorders makes it a potential biomarker or therapeutic target in oncology.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843591164073,"sku":"ab184866","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab184866","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
