Mouse Monoclonal Antibody to IKBKE

Mouse IgG1

Enterez GeneID: 9641
General Information: Inhibitor of kappa light polypeptide gene enhancer in B-cells, kinase epsilon.The transcription factor NF?B is retained in the cytoplasm in an inactive form by the inhibitory protein I?B. Activation of NF?B requires that I?B be phosphorylated on specific serine residues, which results in targeted degra-dation of I?B. I?B kinase a(IKKa), previously designated CHUK, interacts with I?B-aand specifically phosphorylates I?B-aon the sites that trigger its degradation, serines 32 and 36. The functional IKK complex contains three subunits, IKKa, IKKßand IKK?(also designated NEMO), and each appear to make essential contributions to I?B phosphorylation. IKK-i is a serine/threonine kinase that shares homology with IKKaand IKKß. IKK-i is pri-marily expressed in immune cells and is induced by lipopolysaccharide and by proinflammatory cytokines including TNFa, IL-1 and IL-6. Overexpression of IKK-i was shown to result in phosphorylation of I?Baon Ser32 and Ser36, and in NF?B activation, suggesting that IKK-i may act as an I?B kinase in the immune system.
