Products from BPS Bioscience require a minimum order value above 400€
Encompassing Amino Acids: 1-303
Applications: Useful for the study of enzyme kinetics, screening inhibitors, and selectivity profiling.
Assay Conditions: 5 mM MOPS, 2.5 mM β-glycerophosphate, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EGTA, 0.4 mM EDTA, 0.05 mM DTT, 2 mM ATP. Incubate SIK with 0.2 mg/ml AMARA peptide substrate and 50 µM [33P]-ATP at 30°C for 15 minutes, then spot reaction on phosphocellulose paper, fix in 1% phosphoric acid, and assay with a scintillation counter.
Background: SIK is a protein kinase that is involved in regulating AMPK-related kinases (1). SIK may mediate the physiological effects of LKB1, including its tumour suppressor function. SIK is also involved in signaling by various proteins like STRAD, NUAK1, NUAK2, BRSK1, BRSK2, QIK, QSK, SIK, MARK1, MARK2, MARK3, MARK4 and MELK that are related to AMPK. Activation of SIK1 by phosphorylation on thr322 can lead to an increase in the catalytic activity of sodium/potassium ATPase alpha subunit at the plasma membrane (2). This results in an increase in intracellular sodium in intact mammalian cells.
