Immunoprecipitation: MKK4/MEK4 Antibody (OTI8A8) [NBP1-47839] - (Negative control: IP without adding anti-MAP2K4 antibody.). For each experiment, 500ul of DDK tagged MAP2K4 overexpression lysates (at 1:5 dilution with HEK293T lysate), 2ug of anti-MAP2K4 antibody and 20ul (0.1mg) of goat anti-mouse conjugated magnetic beads were mixed and incubated overnight. After extensive wash to remove any non-specific binding, the immuno-precipitated products were analyzed with rabbit anti-DDK polyclonal antibody.

Background

This gene encodes a dual specificity protein kinase that belongs to the Ser/Thr protein kinase family. This kinase is a direct activator of MAP kinases in response to various environmental stresses or mitogenic stimuli. It has been shown to activate MAPK8/JNK1, MAPK9/JNK2, and MAPK14/p38, but not MAPK1/ERK2 or MAPK3/ERK3. This kinase is phosphorylated, and thus activated by MAP3K1/MEKK. The knockout studies in mice suggested the roles of this kinase in mediating survival signal in T cell development, as well as in the organogenesis of liver
