Antibody Code: NK022
Antibody Target Type: Pan-specific
Protein UniProt: Q8N5S9
Protein SigNET: CaMKK1
Antibody Type: Polyclonal
Antibody Host Species: Rabbit
Antibody Immunogen Source: Human CaMKK1 (CaMKK) sequence peptide
Antibody Immunogen Sequence: CGKSPELPGVQEDEA
Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues G490 to A503; C-terminus.
Production Method: The immunizing peptide was produced on an A.B.I. automated peptide synthesizer. The peptide was cleaved from the synthesis resin with HF and purified by reverse-phase hplc chromatography. Purity was assessed by analytical hplc and the amino acid sequence confirmed by amino acid analysis. This peptide was coupled to KLH prior to immunization into rabbits. New Zealand White rabbits were subcutaneously injected with KLH-coupled immunizing peptide every 4 weeks. The sera from these animals was applied onto an agarose column to which the immunogen peptide was thio-linked. Antibody was eluted from the column with 0.1 M glycine, pH 2.5. Subsequently, the antibody solution was neutralized to pH 7.0 with saturated Tris.
Antibody Modification: Unconjugated. Contact KInexus if you are interest in having the antibody biotinylated or coupled with fluorescent dyes.

Scientific Background: CaMKK1 is a 56 kDa protein-serine/threonine kinase of the Other group and CaMKK family. It is a calcium/calmodulin-activated protein kinase that phosphorylates and activates CaMK1 (at Thr-177), CaMK1d, CaMK1g, CaMK4 (at Thr-196/200), and Akt1. It also targets SAD-B (neuronal development), and SIRT1 as substrates. It promotes cell survival by phosphorylating AKT1/PKB, which inhibits the pro-apoptotic protein BAD. It features an N-terminal catalytic domain and a C-terminal regulatory domain. Binding of calmodulin may releave intrasteric autoinhibition. CaMKK1 is activated by the binding of Ca2+/calmodulin to its regulatory domain, which releases an autoinhibitory segment from the catalytic domain. It is partially inhibited upon phosphorylation by PRCAKA/PKA. It highest expression is in the brain (cerebellum, hippocampus, hypothalamus), but it is expressed in heart and lymphoid tissues. While not crucial for early brain development, it is implicated in regulating neuronal gene transcription and synaptic plasticity. CaMKK1 plays a selective role in long-term contextual fear memory, specifically in males. It is up-regulated in some cancers (lung, hepatocellular carcinoma) and during viral infections (e.g., Cytomegalovirus), where it enhances glycolytic flux.
