SAPK Antibody – Mouse Monoclonal

The stress-activated protein kinase/Junterminal kinase SAPK/JNK is potently and preferentially activated by a variety of environmental stresses, including UV and gamma radiation, ceramides, inflammatory cytokines and, in some instances, by growth factors and GPCR agonists. As with the other MAPKs, the core signaling unit is composed of an MAPKKK, typically MEKK1-4, or a member of the mixed lineage kinases (MLKs) that would phosphorylate and activate MKK4-7, the SAPK/JNK kinase. Stress signals are delivered to this cascade by members of small GTPases of the Rho family (Rac, Rho, cdc42). Both Rac1 and cdc42 mediate the stimulation of MEKKs and MLKs. Alternatively, MKK4-7 can be activated in a pathway independent of small GTPases via stimulation of a member of the germinal center kinase (GCK) family. There are three SAPK/JNK genes with further diversification from alternative splicing. SAPK/JNK, when active as a dimer, can translocate to the nucleus where it regulates transcription through its effects on c-Jun, ATF-2 and other transcription factors.

Small volumes of anti-SAPK, JNK antibody vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.
