Rabbit anti-Human NCK2 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

O43639

Target Species

Human

Target Name

NCK2

Target Full Name

Cytoplasmic protein NCK2

Target Function

Adapter protein which associates with tyrosine-phosphorylated growth factor receptors or their cellular substrates. Maintains low levels of EIF2S1 phosphorylation by promoting its dephosphorylation by PP1. Plays a role in ELK1-dependent transcriptional activation in response to activated Ras signaling.

Target Subcellular Location

Cytoplasm. Endoplasmic reticulum.

Target Tissue Specificity

Ubiquitous.

Target Research Area

Transcription

Target Synonyms

Cytoplasmic protein NCK2; GRB4; Growth factor receptor bound protein 4; NCK adaptor protein 2; Nck-2; NCK2; NCK2_HUMAN; NCKbeta; Non-catalytic region of tyrosine kinase adaptor protein 2; Noncatalytic region of tyrosine kinase beta; SH2/SH3 adaptor protein NCK-beta

Target Background

This gene encodes a member of the NCK family of adaptor proteins. The protein contains three SH3 domains and one SH2 domain. The protein has no known catalytic function but has been shown to bind and recruit various proteins involved in the regulation of receptor protein tyrosine kinases. It is through these regulatory activities that this protein is believed to be involved in cytoskeletal reorganization. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized.
