Description | Description: Rabbit IgG polyclonal antibody for Serine/threonine-protein kinase Chk2(CHEK2) detection. Tested with WB, IHC-P in Human;Mouse;Rat. Background: CHK2, a protein kinase that is activated in response to DNA damage, is involved in cell cycle arrest. Mapped on 22q12.1, CHK2 has a potential regulatory region rich in SQ and TQ amino acid pairs. It regulates BRCA1 function after DNA damage by phosphorylating serine-988 of BRCA1. Additionally, CHK2 can be modified by phosphorylation and activated in response to ionizing radiation, and can be also modified in response to hydroxyurea treatment. Furthermore, oligomerization of CHEK2 increases the efficiency of transautophosphorylation, resulting in the release of active CHEK2 monomers that |
