Name :
Recombinant Human CaMKII alpha/CAMK2A Protein (GST Tag)
Biological Activity :
Background :
Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase2A (CAMK2A) belongs to the serine/threonine protein kinase family and, together with other 28 different isoforms, belongs to the Ca2+/ calmodulin-dependent protein kinase subfamily. CaM kinase Ⅱ is thought to be an important mediator of learning and memory and is also necessary for Ca2+ homeostasis and reuptake in cardiomyocytes chloride transport in epithelia, positive T-cell selection, and CD8 T-cell activation. CAMKIIA is one of the major forms of CAMKII. It has been found to play a critical role in sustaining activation of CAMKII at the postsynaptic density. Studies have found that knockout mice without CAMKIIA demonstrate a low frequency of LTP. Additionally, these mice do not form persistent, stable place cells in the hippocampus.
Biological Activity :
The specific activity was determined to be 160 nmol/min/mg using Autocamtide-2 synthetic peptide (KKALRRQETVDAL-amide) as substrate.

Storage and Stability :
Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -20℃ to -80℃. Store it under sterile conditions at -20℃ to -80℃. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Endotoxin Level :
< 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method
Protein Construction :
A DNA sequence encoding the human CAMK2A isoform 2 (NP_741960.1) (Met 1-His 478) was fused with the GST tag at the N-terminus.
