Anti-KANK1 antibody produced in rabbit

HPA005539    Human Protein Atlas characterization data

KN motif and ankyrin repeat domains 1 (KANK1) is an adaptor protein, which belongs to the KANK family of proteins. It contains ankyrin-repeat domain at its C-terminus, central coiled coil domains, and the KN motif at the N-terminal. KANK1 gene is located at the chromosomal position 9p24.3. This protein is found in both cytoplasm and nucleus, though it is predominantly found in the cytoplasm in multiple human kidney cell lines. Alternative splicing of this gene produces two isoforms, KANK-L and KANK-S, where KANK-L has an additional 158 amino acid at the N-terminal.

Anti-KANK1 antibody is suitable for immunoprecipitation and pull-down assay.
Anti-KANK1 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.
Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below.

KANK1 (KN motif and ankyrin repeat domains 1) protein regulates the formation of cytoskeleton by mediating actin polymerization. Akt phosphorylates KANK1, which in turn binds to 14-3-3 protein. The activation of Akt is dependent upon epidermal growth factor (EGF) and insulin, which control cell migration, apoptosis, cell cycle and growth etc. Through Akt signaling, KANK1 suppresses cell migration and actin stress fiber formation by inhibiting RhoA. It prevents the formation of lamellipodia in fibroblasts via its interaction with IRSp53. It also negatively regulates integrin dependent cell spreading. KANK1 acts as a nucleo-cytoplasmic shuttle for β-catenin protein, where β-catenin is transported to nucleus to induce transcription dependent on β-catenin. KANK1 also acts as a tumor suppressor gene, and its down-regulation or inactivation is associated with kidney cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer, bladder cancer, and breast cancer.

Prestige Antibodies^® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies^® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:

• IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
• Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
