| Description: | Plks (polo-like kinases) encode serine/threonine kinases that are closelyrelated to polo and CDC5, genes that are required for passage through mitosisin Drosophila and Saccharomyces, respectively. Polo-like kinases, whichinclude Plk, Snk (for serum-inducible kinase, also designated Plk2) and Fnk(for FGF-inducible kinase, also designated Plk3 or PRK), play a role in cellproliferation. Plk protein accumulates in the cell during S and G2 phases ofthe cell cycle, and both protein content and catalytic activity peak at theonset of mitosis, followed by a rapid reduction after mitosis. Snk and Fnk areimmediate-early response genes that are first expressed during G1 phase. SNK may play a role in the division of at least some cell types, such as fibroblasts, and could function in embryogenesis, wound healing or neoplasia SNK mRNA is rapidly induced in human lung fibroblasts upon reintroduction of serum following 36 hours of serum deprivation. |
| Further Information: | This PLK2 (SNK) antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 375-406 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human PLK2 (SNK). |
