Rabbit anti-Human MAP3K14 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q99558

Target Species

Human

Target Name

MAP3K14

Target Full Name

Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 14

Target Function

Lymphotoxin beta-activated kinase which seems to be exclusively involved in the activation of NF-kappa-B and its transcriptional activity. Promotes proteolytic processing of NFKB2/P100, which leads to activation of NF-kappa-B via the non-canonical pathway. Could act in a receptor-selective manner.

Target Subcellular Location

Cytoplasm.

Target Protein Families

Protein kinase superfamily, STE Ser/Thr protein kinase family, MAP kinase kinase kinase subfamily

Target Tissue Specificity

Weakly expressed in testis, small intestine, spleen, thymus, peripheral blood leukocytes, prostate, ovary and colon.

Target Synonyms

MAP3K14; FTDCR1B; HS; HsNIK; M3K14_HUMAN; Map3k14; Mitogen activated protein kinase kinase kinase 14; Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 14; NF kappa beta inducing kinase; NF-kappa-beta-inducing kinase; NIK; Serine/threonine-protein kinase NIK

Target Background

This gene encodes mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 14, which is a serine/threonine protein-kinase. This kinase binds to TRAF2 and stimulates NF-kappaB activity. It shares sequence similarity with several other MAPKK kinases. It participates in an NF-kappaB-inducing signalling cascade common to receptors of the tumour-necrosis/nerve-growth factor (TNF/NGF) family and to the interleukin-1 type-I receptor.
