描述：

ERp72识别内源性的PERK总蛋白。血红细胞染色已经被发现。此染色的特异性未知。该单克隆抗体用与人类PERK蛋白中Leu156位点附近的氨基酸序列对应的人工合成肽段免疫动物而制成。蛋白激酶类似的内质网激酶(PERK)是一种eIF2α激酶并且为一种定位在内质网(ER) 膜上的跨膜蛋白，能够传导ER应激信号从而抑制翻译（1-3）。ER应激会提高PERK的活性，然后使eIF2α磷酸化从而增加翻译水平的降低。研究证实PERK缺失的小鼠在出生后的几周内其胰岛β细胞会出现缺陷，这也暗示着PERK介导的翻译控制在ER应激时保护分泌细胞的重要作用（4）。ER应激时PERK的活化与其胞内激酶结构域的自身磷酸化相关联（1-3）。PERK Thr980位点的磷酸化是其自身活化状态的一个标志。

Specificity / Sensitivity

PERK (D11A8) Rabbit mAb recognizes endogenous levels of total PERK protein. Staining of red blood cells has been observed. The specificity of this staining is unknown.

Source / Purification

Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Leu156 of human PERK protein.

Background

PERK (protein kinase-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase) is an eIF2α kinase and transmembrane protein resident in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane that couples ER stress signals to translation inhibition (1-3). ER stress increases the activity of PERK, which then phosphorylates eIF2α to promote reduced translation. PERK-deficient mice have defects in pancreatic β cells several weeks after birth, suggesting a role for PERK-mediated translational control in protecting secretory cells from ER stress (4). PERK activation during ER stress correlates with autophosphorylation of its cytoplasmic kinase domain (1-3). Phosphorylation of PERK at Thr980 serves as a marker for its activation status.
