ALK, ID (ALK, ALK tyrosine kinase receptor, Anaplastic lymphoma kinase, CD246)

Antibodies / Antibodies-Protein Kinases

-20°C

Supplied as a liquid in PBS, pH 7.2, 0.09% sodium azide.

ALK antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 644ca.673 amino acids from the center region of human ALK.

ALK, a member of the insulin receptor subfamily of Tyr protein kinases, is an orphan receptor. It appears to play an important role in the normal development and function of the nervous system. This Type I membrane protein is expressed in brain and CNS and in the small intestine and testis, but not in normal lymphoid cells. A form of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is characterized by a chromosomal translocation t(2; 5)(p23; q35) that involves NPM1 and ALK. The protein contains 1 LDL-receptor class A domain and 2 putative MAM domains.
