Rat brain lysates were either left untreated (1-4) or treated with lambda (l) phosphatase (5). Lysates were then incubated with CaM Kinase II Alpha [pT286] Polyclonal Antibody, Rabbit, following prior incubation.
Rabbit polyclonal to CaMKII alpha ( phospho T286 )Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II alpha (CaM Kinase II alpha) is a 50 kDa member of CaM Kinase II family of serine-threonine kinases that transduce Ca2+ signals to several target proteins, including ion channels and transcription activators. CaM Kinase II is predominantly expressed in two isoforms in the brain: alpha and beta. CaM Kinase II plays an important role in neuronal plasticity and memory formation, and exerts both calcium-calmodulin-dependent and -independent activities. Autophosphorylation of CaM Kinase II alpha on threonine 286 allows the kinase to switch from a calmodulin-dependent to a calmodulin-independent state, and is required for various cellular functions including hippocampal long-term potentiation (LTP), special learning, and hippocampus-dependent memory.
