MST2/STK3 Antibody

Western blot shows lysates of HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma cell line, MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line, NIH-3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cell line, and L6 rat myoblast cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Human/Mouse/Rat MST2/STK3 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4549) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF017). A specific band was detected for MST2/STK3 at approximately 65 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 2.

Background

MST2 (mammalian sterile twenty-like 2; also known as STK3 and Krs-1) is a 58 kDa member of the GCKII group of the STE20 subfamily of the STE Ser/Thr kinase protein family. In human, MST2 is 491 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains one kinase domain (aa 27-278), two NESs (aa 361-371 and 438-447) and coiled-coil domains (aa 287-328 and 442-475), and one NLS (aa 473-487). A caspase-cleavage site exists between Asp322-Ser323. MST2 is normally inactive in the cytoplasm bound to Raf-1. Cell activation induces Raf-1:MST2 dissociation, MST2 cleavage, and N-terminal translocation to the nucleus. Human MST2 is 99% and 96% aa identical to canine and mouse MST2, respectively.
