NEK6 codes for NIMA-related kinase 6 that is involved in cytokinesis and mitotic spindle formation. It is activated by Nek9 and is known to phosphorylate Eg5 during cell signaling cascades. Rabbit Anti-NEK6 antibody recognizes canine, chicken, zebrafish, human, mouse, rat, bovine, and pig NEK6.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human NEK6
Application
Rabbit Anti-NEK6 antibody is suitable for western blot concentration of 1μg/ml.
Biochem/physiol Actions
The Aspergillus nidulans ′never in mitosis A′ (NIMA) gene encodes a serine/threonine kinase that controls initiation of mitosis. NIMA-related kinases (NEKs) are a group of protein kinases that are homologous to NIMA. Evidence suggests that NEKs perform functions similar to those of NIMA.The Aspergillus nidulans ′never in mitosis A′ (NIMA) gene encodes a serine/threonine kinase that controls initiation of mitosis.

Nek6 and Nercc1 (also known as Nek9) belong to the NIMA family of protein kinases. Nercc1 is activated in mitosis, whereupon it binds, phosphorylates and activates Nek6. Interference with Nek6 or Nercc1 in mammalian cells causes prometaphase-metaphase arrest, and depletion

Nek6 and Nek7 are members of the NIMA-related serine/threonine kinase family. Previous work showed that they contribute to mitotic progression downstream of another NIMA-related kinase, Nek9, although the roles of these different kinases remain to be defined. Here, we carried
Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis that poses threats to the public. M. tuberculosis survives in macrophages by escaping from immune surveillance and clearance, which exacerbates the bacterial proliferation. However, the molecular mechanisms of this immune

The Nek family of protein kinases in humans is composed of 11 members that share an amino-terminal catalytic domain related to NIMA, an Aspergillus kinase involved in the control of several aspects of mitosis, and divergent carboxyl-terminal tails of varying
