Active Recombinant Human ITK, GST-tagged

• Cat.No.: ITK-1419H
• Product Overview: Recombinant human ITK (352-end) was expressed by baculovirus in Sf9 insect cells using an N-terminal GST tag.

Specification

• Description: ITK is a member of the TEC family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases. ITK is expressed in T-cells and is important for T-cell development and activation through the antigen receptor.ITK require prior activation of Lck, Zap-70 and PI3-kinase for efficient activation and shares major substrates with both Lck and Zap-70. ITK knockout mice show multiple effects on T cell development, cytokine production and T-helper cell differentiation. T cells that lack or express mutant versions of ITK show impaired TCR-induced actin polymerization, cell polarization and regulation of the signaling events involved in cytoskeletal reorganization.
