Product Category: Polyclonal Antibodies

Host: Rabbit

Species Reactivity: H, M, Rat

Specificity: This ROCK2 antibody is generated from a rabbit immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 1346-1380 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human ROCK2.

Cellular Localisation: Cytoplasm. Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Nucleus. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome Note=Cytoplasmic, and associated with actin microfilaments and the plasma membrane.

Molecular Weight: 160900

Clone: Polyclonal

Gene Name: ROCK2

Gene ID: 9475

Function: Protein kinase which is a key regulator of actin cytoskeleton and cell polarity. Involved in regulation of smooth muscle contraction, actin cytoskeleton organization, stress fiber and focal adhesion formation, neurite retraction, cell adhesion and motility via phosphorylation of ADD1, BRCA2, CNN1, EZR, DPYSL2, EP300, MSN, MYL9/MLC2, NPM1, RDX, PPP1R12A and VIM. Phosphorylates SORL1 and IRF4. Acts as a negative regulator of VEGF-induced angiogenic endothelial cell activation. Positively regulates the activation of p42/MAPK1- p44/MAPK3 and of p90RSK/RPS6KA1 during myogenic differentiation. Plays an important role in the timely initiation of centrosome duplication. Inhibits keratinocyte terminal differentiation. May regulate closure of the eyelids and ventral body wall through organization of actomyosin bundles. Plays a critical role in the regulation of spine and synaptic properties in the hippocampus. Plays an important role in generating the circadian rhythm of the aortic myofilament Ca (2+) sensitivity and vascular contractility by modulating the myosin light chain phosphorylation.

Summary: Tissue Location: Expressed in the brain (at protein level) .
