Related Product Information for anti-CHUK antibody

NF-kB is silenced in the cytoplasm by an inhibitory protein, IkB (1). Synthesis of IkBa is autoregulated (2). IkB proteins are phosphorylated by IkB kinase complex consisting of at least three proteins, IKK1/a, IKK2/b, and IKK3/g (3-6). External stimuli such as tumor necrosis factor or other cytokines initiates a signal transduction cascade that leads to the activation of IkB-kinase complex that specifically phosphorylates IkBa on Serine-32 and Serine-36. Phosphorylation of these sites leads to ubiquitination of IkBa and subsequent degradation by the 26 S proteasome. Degradation of IkBa results in unmasking of the nuclear localization signal of NF-kB dimers, which subsequently translocates to the nucleus and activates target genes (7,8). Six members of IkB family members have been identified (1). One of the first gene induced following NF-kB activation is IkBa.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a member of the serine/threonine protein kinase family. The encoded protein, a component of a cytokine-activated protein complex that is an inhibitor of the essential transcription factor NF-kappa-B complex, phosphorylates sites that trigger the degradation of the inhibitor via the ubiquination pathway, thereby activating the transcription factor.

Uniprot Description

IKKA: a kinase of the IKK family. Phosphorylates inhibitors of NF-kappa-B, leading to their dissociation from NF-kappa-B and ultimately to their degradation. Phosphorylated and activated downstream of growth factor receptors, IL1R, and TNFR by NAK, IRAK and NIK, respectively. Preferentially found as a heterodimer with IKK-beta but also as an homodimer. Directly interacts with IKK-gamma/NEMO and TRPC4AP. Heterodimers form the active complex. The tripartite complex can also bind to MAP3K14/NIK, MEKK1, IKAP and IKB-alpha-p65-p50 complex. Inhibitors are under development to treat arthritis, inflammation, and apoptotic aspects of cancer. Aspirin (sodium salicylate) selectively binds IKK and reduces inflammation. Misexpression and inhibitors show involvement in insulin sensitization in obese rodents. Mutations in IKK-gamma are found in several immune deficiencies: hyper IgM syndrome, incontinentia pigmenti [embryonic lethal in males, defects in skin, hair, teeth in females] and hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia; recurrent infections and defects in teeth, hair, and sweat glands]. Inhibitors: CHS 828, NBD peptide, BMS-345541.
