Application: Anti-CKB antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project (www.proteinatlas.org). Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.
Biochem Physiol Actions: CKB (creatine kinase, brain) gene encodes a protein that reversibly catalyzes the transfer of phosphate between ATP and creatine to produce ADP and phosphocreatine. It belongs to the phosphagen kinase protein family. The gene is regulated during cell differentiation. It is highly enhanced in small cell lung carcinoma It has been reported that hormonal activity may control its expression.
