General description

Rho-Associated Kinase (Rho-Kinase or ROK) has been classified into two isoforms: ROKα/ROCK-II and ROKβ/ROCK-I. These large cellular proteins (150-160 kDa), have been reported to be involved in the formation of stress fibers, focal adhesions and cardiac hypertonic responses. Current research suggests that ROK of smooth muscle may be involved in the contractile process via phosphorylation of MYPT1 and Myosin. The serine-threonine kinase ROCK-1 is a down-stream effector of Rho, and is involved in signal transduction pathways that regulate cell morphology, motility, and tumor progression through the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton.

Specificity

This antibody recognizes ROCK-1 and ROCK-2.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide corresponding to human ROCK-1, 90.5% homology with ROCK-2

Application

This Anti-ROCK-1/2 Antibody is validated for use in WB for the detection of ROCK-1/2.

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blot in A431 cell lysate.
Western Blot Analysis: 1:500 dilution of this antibody detected ROCK-1/2 on 10 µg of A431 cell lysate.

Recent studies have shown that the Eph receptor A2 (EphA2) and its inhibitor ALW-II-41-27 could regulate various cellular processes in several types of cancer. However, the manner in which ALW-II-41-27 affects the development of cervical cancer (CC) remains unknown. The

Src is highly expressed in CNS neurons and contributes not only to developmental proliferation and differentiation but also to high-order brain functions, such as those contributing to alcohol consumption. Src knock-out mice exhibit no CNS abnormalities, presumably due to compensation

The myotonic dystrophy kinase-related CDC42-binding kinases MRCKα and MRCKβ regulate actin-myosin contractility and have been implicated in cancer metastasis. Along with the related ROCK1 and ROCK2 kinases, the MRCK proteins initiate signalling events that lead to contractile force generation which

The serine/threonine kinases ROCK1 and ROCK2 are central mediators of actomyosin contractile force generation that act downstream of the RhoA small GTP-binding protein. As a result, they have key roles in regulating cell morphology and proliferation, and have been implicated
