HIPK2, a member of the KIPK subfamily of Ser/Thr protein kinases, phosphorylates homeodomain transcription factors. It may play a role as a corepressor for homeodomain transcription factors. This nuclear protein has been shown to interact with TRADD. It is highly expressed in neuronal tissues, heart and kidney, and weakly expressed in a ubiquitous way. HIPK2 is a target for sumoylation, and when conjugated it is directed to nuclear speckles1) Li, X., et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 277(2):513-517 (2000).
Immunogen
This HIPK2 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 344-372 amino acids from human HIPK2.
