Other Names | Uridine-cytidine kinase 2, UCK 2, Cytidine monophosphokinase 2, Testis-specific protein TSA903, Uridine monophosphokinase 2, UCK2, UMPK |
Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP7192b was selected from the C-term region of human UCK2. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay. |
Format | Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C. |
Precautions | This product is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |

Synonyms | UMPK |
Function | Phosphorylates uridine and cytidine to uridine monophosphate and cytidine monophosphate (PubMed:11306702, PubMed:11494055). Does not phosphorylate deoxyribonucleosides or purine ribonucleosides (PubMed:11306702). Can use ATP or GTP as a phosphate donor (PubMed:11306702). Can also phosphorylate cytidine and uridine nucleoside analogs such as 6-azauridine, 5-fluorouridine, 4- thiouridine, 5-bromouridine, N(4)-acetylcytidine, N(4)-benzoylcytidine, 5-fluorocytidine, 2-thiocytidine, 5-methylcytidine, and N(4)- anisoylcytidine (PubMed:11306702). |
Tissue Location | According to PubMed:8812458; testis-specific. According to PubMed:11306702, placenta-specific |

Background
UCK2 catalyzes the phosphorylation of uridine monophosphate to uridine diphosphate. This is the first step in the production of the pyrimidine nucleoside triphosphates required for RNA and DNA synthesis. In addition, an allele of this gene may play a role in mediating nonhumoral immunity to Hemophilus influenzae type B.
