Clone Names | 2122508 |
Peptide ID | 2122508 |
Gene ID | 85366 |
---|---|
Other Names | Myosin light chain kinase 2, skeletal/cardiac muscle, MLCK2, MYLK2 |
Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP7964a was selected from the N-term region of human MLCK2 . A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay. |
Format | The synthetic peptide was lyophilized with 100% acetonitrile and is supplied as a powder. Reconstitute with 0.1 ml deionized water for a final concentration of 1 mg/ml. |
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. |
Name | MYLK2 |
---|---|
Function | Implicated in the level of global muscle contraction and cardiac function. Phosphorylates a specific serine in the N- terminus of a myosin light chain. |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm. Note=Colocalizes with phosphorylated myosin light chain (RLCP) at filaments of the myofibrils |
Tissue Location | Heart and skeletal muscles. Increased expression in the apical tissue compared to the interventricular septal tissue |
