NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
WNK4: Serine/threonine kinase which plays an important role in the regulation of electrolyte homeostasis, cell signaling, survival and proliferation. Acts as an activator and inhibitor of sodium-coupled chloride cotransporters and potassium-coupled chloride cotransporters respectively. Activates SCNN1A, SCNN1B, SCNN1D, SGK1, TRPV5 and TRPV6. Regulates the activity of the thiazide-sensitive Na-Cl cotransporter, SLC12A3, by phosphorylation which appears to prevent membrane trafficking of SLC12A3. Also inhibits the renal K(+) channel, KCNJ1, via a kinase-independent mechanism by which it induces clearance of the protein from the cell surface by clathrin-dependent endocytosis. WNK4 appears to act as a molecular switch that can vary the balance between NaCl reabsorption and K(+) secretion to maintain integrated homeostasis. Phosphorylates NEDD4L. Interacts with the C-terminal region of KCNJ1. Interacts with WNK1 and WNK3. Expressed in kidney, colon and skin. Activation requires autophosphorylation of Ser- 335. Phosphorylation of Ser-331 also promotes increased activity. Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Ser/Thr protein kinase family. WNK subfamily. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The WNK4 wnk4 (Catalog #AAA9613579) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The WNK4 Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's WNK4 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Peptide ELISA (EIA). Peptide ELISA: 1:20,000-1:40,000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the WNK4 wnk4 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 "WNK4, 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.Precautions
