REACH authorisation
Abcam 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.
It is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.
Lysate preparation:
Our lysates are made using RIPA buffer to which we add a protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (ratio: 300:100:10).
This means that the protein of interest is denatured.
If you require a native form of the protein please use the live cell version. Please refer to our lysis protocol for further details on how our lysates are prepared.
User storage instructions:
Lyophilizate may be stored at 4°C. After reconstitution, store at -20°C for short-term storage or -80°C for long-term storage.

NLK (Nemo-Like Kinase) functions as a serine/threonine protein kinase involved in various signaling pathways. It alternatively is known as nemo-like protein or nlk. The molecular mass of NLK is approximately 54 kDa. Expression of NLK occurs in various tissues but it is highly observed in the brain and testis. This wide expression suggests that NLK may have diverse functional roles.
Biological function summary
NLK participates in regulating cellular processes such as cell cycle apoptosis and transcription. It is not part of a larger complex but works within signaling pathways to influence these processes. NLK modulates the activity of several transcription factors particularly in the Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway where it negatively regulates the signaling to control gene expression relevant to cell proliferation and differentiation.
Pathways
NLK is an important player in the Wnt/beta-catenin and MAPK pathways. In the Wnt/beta-catenin pathway it associates with proteins such as TCF/LEF and beta-catenin acting to modulate transcription by phosphorylating these molecules. The MAPK pathway involves NLK in response to stress signals coordinating with proteins like TAK1 to mediate cellular responses. These pathways illustrate NLK’s role in transmitting signals that govern cell fate and stress responses.
NLK has links to cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Alterations in NLK expression or function can contribute to the development and progression of cancers by affecting the regulation of cell proliferation and apoptosis. Specifically dysregulation in the Wnt/beta-catenin pathway in which NLK acts relates to colorectal cancers. In the context of neurodegenerative diseases NLK has connections with the protein TDP-43 which is implicated in diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis highlighting its role in neuronal health and potential links to neuronal degradation.
