CK2alpha2 or casein kinase II alpha 2 is a member of the CK2 family of Ser/Thr protein kinases. CK2a2 plays a fundamental role in cell function and is involved in DNA replication, regulation of basal and inducible transcription, translation and control of metabolism. CK2alpha2 prefers utilization of acidic proteins such as caseins as substrates. The CK2a2 holoenzyme is a tetramer composed of an alpha chain, an alpha' and two beta chains. The alpha and alpha' chains contain the catalytic site. CK2alpha2 is also a component of CK2-SPT16-SSRP1 complex comprised of SSRP1, SUPT16H, CSNK2A1, CSNK2A2 and CSNK2B (1). This complex associates following UV irradiation. CK2a2 act as a candidate gene for inherited abnormalities of sperm morphogenesis (2).

Product Notes
The CK2alpha2 (Catalog #AAA516754) is a Recombinant Protein produced from Sf9 insect cells and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's CK2 alpha 2 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 CK2alpha2 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 "CK2 alpha 2, 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
