Category: Kinase-Serine/Threonine/Protein

Application: Useful for the study of enzyme kinetics, screening inhibitors, and selectivity profiling

Background: MST4 belongs to a family of proteins that share similarity with a budding yeast serine/threonine kinase, sterile-20 (Ste20), and have a role in mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling during cytoskeletal rearrangement, morphogenesis, apoptosis, and other diverse cellular events (1). Expression of MST4 has been shown to correlate with tumorigenicity and inversely with androgen receptor status in a number of human prostate cancer cell lines. Overexpression of MST4 induced anchorage-independent growth and increased in vitro proliferation of these prostate cancer cell lines (2).

Description: Recombinant human MST4, also known as MASK (GenBank Accession No. NM_016542), full length, with N-terminal GST tag, MW=72 kDa, expressed in Sf9 insect cells via a baculovirus expression system.
