epitope corresponding to amino acids 254-496 mapping at the C-terminus of VRK2 of human origin
Modification Notes
VRK2 (vaccinia related kinase 2) is a 508 amino acid single-pass type IV membrane protein that contains one protein kinase domain and belongs to the serine/threonine protein kinase family. Widely expressed with highest expression in heart, skeletal muscle, pancreas, testis and fetal liver, VRK2 is thought to function as a serine/threonine kinase that catalyzes the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of target proteins, such as casein and p53, thereby regulating their function within the cell. VRK2 is localized to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and, via its ability to regulate protein activity, is thought to be involved in normal cell proliferation events. Expression of VRK2 is upregulated in certain carcinomas, suggesting a possible role for VRK2 in carcinogenesis. Five isoforms of VRK2 exist due to alternative splicing events.
