    Product Usage Information

    Application Dilution
    Western Blotting 1:1000
    Immunoprecipitation 1:100

    Storage

    Supplied in 10 mM sodium HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg/ml BSA, 50% glycerol and less than 0.02% sodium azide. Store at –20°C. Do not aliquot the antibody.

    Protocol

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    Choline Kinase α (D5X9W) Rabbit mAb recognizes endogenous levels of total choline kinase α protein. Based on the antigen sequence, this antibody is not expected to recognize choline kinase β.

    Species Reactivity:

    Human, Monkey

    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Pro85 of human choline kinase α protein.

    Background

    Choline kinase (ChoK) catalyzes the phosphorylation of choline, a key step in the biosynthesis of the membrane phospholipid phosphatidylcholine. At least three ChoK isoforms exist in mammalian cells, α-1, α-2, and β. The two α isoforms are transcribed from the same CHKA gene as splice variants, while the β isoform resides on a separate CHKB gene (reviewed in 1).

    Research studies indicate that ChoKα levels affect signaling through MAPK and Akt pathways (2,3). Investigators have shown that ChoKα plays a role in proliferation and carcinogenesis and is highly expressed/activated in human cancers (4-7). Additional research studies suggest ChoKα may be a potential target for cancer therapy (8).
