Scientific Background: COT is an oncogene that can activate both the MAP kinase and JNK kinase pathways. COT activates IkappaB kinases and induces the nuclear production of NF-kappaB. 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 lead 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 and Uniprot Product Information
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
Cot: an oncogenic Ser/Thr kinase of the STE group. Activates IkappaB kinases, thus inducing the nuclear translocation of NF-kappaB. Promotes the production of TNF-alpha and IL-2 during T lymphocyte activation. Interacts with NFkB-p105. Overexpressed and amplified in breast tumors. Viral insertions induce rat lymphomas and mouse mammary carcinomas. Isolated as a transforming factor in two cell lines. Mediates LPS activation of macrophages. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative initiation.

Product Notes
The COT map3k8 (Catalog #AAA515539) is a Recombinant Protein produced from Sf9 insect cells using baculovirus and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The immunogen sequence is 30-397. 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.Precautions
