Active Recombinant Human NUAK2, His-tagged(Mutant K85R)

• Cat.No.: NUAK2-91H
• Product Overview: The recombinant Human NUAK2, His-tagged(Mutant K85R) protein was expressed in E. coli and purified by affinity chromatography in combination with FPLC columns.

Specification

• Description: Highest expression of SNARK is found in kidney, followed in order by brain, ovary, heart, lung, skeletal muscle, pancreas, testis, and spleen. In insulin-stimulated adipocytes, SIK2 phosphorylates IRS1 at ser794 and may modulate the efficiency of insulin signal transduction, eventually causing the insulin resistance associated with diabetes. Cells with reduced expression of SNARK also showed reduced motility and invasiveness in response to CD95 engagement. SNARK therefore represents an NF-kappaB-regulated anti-apoptotic gene that contributes to the tumor-promoting activity of CD95 in apoptosis-resistant tumor cells. Glucose deprivation increased SNARK activity 3-fold in BHK fibroblasts. These findings identify SNARK as a glucose- and AICAriboside-regulated member of the AMPK-related gene family that represents a new candidate mediator of the cellular response to metabolic stress.
