Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nCK2 (formerly called Casein Kinase II) is a highly conserved protein kinase with more than 300 substrates regulating cell growth, cell death, and cell survival. CK2 has been implicated in the response to UV irradiation-induced DNA damage, targeting XRCC1 (1) and BRCA1 (2) as well as regulating p53 tumor suppressor protein functions (3). Furthermore, CK2 plays a key role in NF-ÎºB activation (4). UV irradiation stimulates CK2-mediated phosphorylation of several carboxy-terminal residues within IÎºBÎ±, resulting in IÎºBÎ± proteasomal degradation and the release and nuclear translocation of active NF-ÎºB. CK2 is also dysregulated in many cancers (5) and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases (6). Structurally, CK2 is a multimeric protein complex consisting of two catalytic subunits (Î± or Î±') and two regulatory Î² subunits (7). CK2 is distributed ubiquitously and is apparently constitutively active (7). While cell cycle-dependent Ser-Pro phosphorylation sites have been identified on CK2Î± and CK2Î², Tyr255 phosphorylation by the Src-related kinase c-Fgr seems to have the greatest effect on CK2Î± activity (8,9).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\ncasein kinase 2 alpha 1; casein kinase 2, alpha 1 polypeptide; casein kinase II alpha 1 polypeptide pseudogene; casein kinase II alpha 1 subunit; Casein kinase II subunit alpha; CK II alpha; CK2 catalytic subunit alpha; CK2A1; Cka1; Cka2; CKII; CSK21; CSNK2A1; OCNDS; protein kinase CK2\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 42\nSOURCE: Rabbit","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46797939474601,"sku":"2656S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-2656s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
