This gene encodes a member of the RSK (ribosomal S6 kinase) family of serine/threonine kinases. This kinase contains 2 nonidentical kinase catalytic domains and phosphorylates various substrates, including members of the mitogen-activated kinase (MAPK) signalling pathway. The activity of this protein has been implicated in controlling cell growth and differentiation. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized.
FUNCTION:SwissProt: Q15418 # Serine/threonine kinase that may play a role in mediating the growth-factor and stress induced activation of the transcription factor CREB. COFACTOR:Magnesium. SIZE:735 amino acids; 82723 Da SUBUNIT:Forms a complex with either ERK1 or ERK2 in quiescent cells. Transiently dissociates following mitogenic stimulation. PTM:Autophosphorylated on Ser-380, as part of the activation process. SIMILARITY:SwissProt: Q15418 ## Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. AGC Ser/Thr protein kinase family. S6 kinase subfamily. & Contains 1 AGC-kinase C-terminal domain. & Contains 2 protein kinase domains.

Usage Statement
Unless otherwise stated in our catalog or other company documentation accompanying the product(s), our products are intended for research use only and are not to be used for any other purpose, which includes but is not limited to, unauthorized commercial uses, in vitro diagnostic uses, ex vivo or in vivo therapeutic uses or any type of consumption or application to humans or animals.
Storage and Shipping Information
Storage Conditions
2 years at -20°C from date of shipment. Upon first thaw, and prior to removing the cap, centrifuge the vial and gently mix the solution. Aliquot into microcentrifuge tubes and store at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles, which may damage IgG and affect product performance. Note: Variability in freezer temperatures below -20°C may cause glycerol-containing solutions to become frozen during storage.
