Recombinant human COT (30-397) was expressed by baculovirus in Sf9 insect cells using an N-terminal GST tag.

Scientific Background: COT is an oncogene that can activate both the MAP kinase and JNK kinase pathways. COT activates Itheta degree B kinases and induces the nuclear production of NF-theta degree B. C-terminal catalytic domain of KSR2 associates with COT and KSR2 can negatively regulates the kinase activity of COT in vitro. Co-transfection of KSR2 with COT in cells leads to reduced COT-mediated ERK activation and COT-induced IL8 production in a dose-dependent manner (1). COT is one of the MAP kinase kinase kinases that regulates the ERK1/ERK2 pathway in response to IL-1. Blockage of expression of COT results in failure of IL-1 to induce an increase in IL-8 and MIP-1betamRNA levels (2).

NCBI Description

This gene is an oncogene that encodes a member of the serine/threonine protein kinase family. The encoded protein localizes to the cytoplasm and can activate both the MAP kinase and JNK kinase pathways. This protein was shown to activate IkappaB kinases, and thus induce the nuclear production of NF-kappaB. This protein was also found to promote the production of TNF-alpha and IL-2 during T lymphocyte activation. This gene may also utilize a downstream in-frame translation start codon, and thus produce an isoform containing a shorter N-terminus. The shorter isoform has been shown to display weaker transforming activity. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]

Uniprot Description

Function: Required for TLR4 activation of the MEK/ERK pathway. Able to activate NF-kappa-B 1 by stimulating proteasome-mediated proteolysis of NF-kappa-B 1/p105. Plays a role in the cell cycle. The longer form has some transforming activity, although it is much weaker than the activated cot oncoprotein. Ref.10 Ref.11

Catalytic activity: ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.

Cofactor: Magnesium.

Subunit structure: Forms a ternary complex with NFKB1 and TNIP2.

Subcellular location: Cytoplasm Ref.2 Ref.10.

Tissue specificity: Expressed in several normal tissues and human tumor-derived cell lines.

Developmental stage: Isoform 1 is activated specifically during the S and G2/M phases of the cell cycle.

Post-translational modification: Autophosphorylated. Isoform 1 undergoes phosphorylation mainly on Ser residues, and isoform 2 on both Ser and Thr residues. Ref.10 Ref.12

Sequence similarities: Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. STE Ser/Thr protein kinase family. MAP kinase kinase kinase subfamily.Contains 1 protein kinase domain.

Product Notes

The COT map3k8 (Catalog #AAA515331) is a Recombinant Protein produced from Sf9 insect cells and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The immunogen sequence is 30-397 with tag GST tag!!Expression System||Sf9 insect cells using baculovirus!!Source Note||Recombinant human COT (30-397) was expressed by baculovirus in Sf9 insect cells. AAA Biotech's COT can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Kinase Assay, Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the COT map3k8 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "COT, Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
