Related Product Information for anti-CERK antibody
Ceramide kinase (CERK), which phosphorylates ceramide to produce ceramide 1-phosphate (C1P), was first described as a Ca+2-stimulated lipid kinase that copurified with brain synaptic vesicles. CERK activity has been reported in HL60 cells, mast cells, and neutrophils. CERK is involved in phagolysosome formation in plymorphonuclear leukocytes and also in liposome fusion. C1P has been reported to have mitogenic effects. More recently, C1P was found to induce arachidonic acid release and prostanoid synthesis.

NCBI Description

CERK converts ceramide to ceramide 1-phosphate (C1P), a sphingolipid metabolite. Both CERK and C1P have been implicated in various cellular processes, including proliferation, apoptosis, phagocytosis, and inflammation (Kim et al., 2006 [PubMed 16488390]).[supplied by OMIM]

Uniprot Description

CERK: Catalyzes specifically the phosphorylation of ceramide to form ceramide 1-phosphate. Acts efficiently on natural and analog ceramides (C6, C8, C16 ceramides, and C8-dihydroceramide), to a lesser extent on C2-ceramide and C6-dihydroceramide, but not on other lipids, such as various sphingosines. Binds phosphoinositides.

Protein type: Lipid Metabolism - sphingolipid; Kinase, lipid; EC 2.7.1.138

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 22q13.31

Cellular Component: mitochondrion; plasma membrane; integral to membrane

Molecular Function: ceramide kinase activity; magnesium ion binding; diacylglycerol kinase activity; ATP binding; NAD+ kinase activity

Biological Process: sphingolipid metabolic process; protein kinase C activation; glycosphingolipid metabolic process; ceramide metabolic process; lipid phosphorylation; transmembrane transport

Product Notes

The CERK cerk (Catalog #AAA194401) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's Ceramide Kinase can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunohistochemistry. Immunohistochemistry: Use at 20ug/ml. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the CERK cerk 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 "Ceramide Kinase, Polyclonal Antibody" 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.
