Category: Kinase-Serine/Threonine/Protein
Application: Useful for the study of enzyme kinetics, screening inhibitors, and selectivity profiling
Background: NEK11 is a member of the NEK family and the protein localizes to the nucleoli where it may function with NEK2A in the S-phase checkpoint. NEK2 phosphorylates NEK11 in its C-terminal autoinhibitory domain and elevates NEK11 kinase activity by dissociating the autoinhibitory domain from the N-terminal catalytic domain (1). NEK11 protein appears to play a role in DNA replication and response to genotoxic stress. NEK11 activity is activated in HeLa cells treated with various DNA-damaging agents and replication inhibitors. Activation of NEK11 by genotoxic agents is suppressed by inhibitor of ATR/ATM-mediated signalling indicating that NEK11 has a role in S-phase checkpoint downstream of ATR/ATM signalling (2).
Description: Recombinant human NEK11, full length, with N-terminal GST-tag, expressed by Sf9 insect cells via a baculovirus expression system.
