Immunogens

Immunogen:

A synthesized peptide derived from human eEF2K, corresponding to a region within the internal amino acids.

Uniprot:
Gene(ID):
Description:
This gene encodes a highly conserved protein kinase in the calmodulin-mediated signaling pathway that links activation of cell surface receptors to cell division. This kinase is involved in the regulation of protein synthesis. It phosphorylates eukaryotic elongation factor 2 (EEF2) and thus inhibits the EEF2 function. The activity of this kinase is increased in many cancers and may be a valid target for anti-cancer treatment.

Research Backgrounds

Function:

Threonine kinase that regulates protein synthesis by controlling the rate of peptide chain elongation. Upon activation by a variety of upstream kinases including AMPK or TRPM7, phosphorylates the elongation factor EEF2 at a single site, renders it unable to bind ribosomes and thus inactive. In turn, the rate of protein synthesis is reduced.

PTMs:

Autophosphorylated at multiple residues, Thr-348 being the major site. Phosphorylated by AMP-activated protein kinase AMPK at Ser-398 leading to EEF2K activation and protein synthesis inhibition. Phosphorylated by TRPM7 at Ser-78 resulting in improved protein stability, higher EE2F phosphorylated and subsequently reduced rate of protein synthesis. Phosphorylation by other kinases such as CDK1 and MAPK13 at Ser-359 or RPS6KA1 and RPS6KB1 at Ser-366 instead decrease EEF2K activity and promote protein synthesis.

Family&Domains:

Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Alpha-type protein kinase family.

Application: WB    Species: mouse    Sample:

Fig. 3. Effect of myostatin on translation elongation pathway. C2C12 myotubes (4–5 days post-differentiation) were treated with various concentration recombinant myostatin (0, 0.01, 0.1, 1, 2, 3 µg/ml) for 48 h and then stimulated with 1 µg/mL puromycin for 30 min. Cells were then lysed and cellular extracts were analyzed by Western blot (ABC).
