Description_x000D_ General description_x000D_ STE20 like kinase (SLK) is a 1204 amino acid serine/threonine kinase. It possesses a kinase domain located at the amino-terminal and a C-terminal regulatory domain with coiled-coils. SLK is group V germinal center kinase that is expressed in the nucleus, cytosol, microtubules and centrosomes. The SLK gene is localized on human chromosome 10q24.33._x000D_ Immunogen_x000D_ SLK (NP_055535, 1126 a.a. ~ 1235 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag.

It phosphorylates cytoskeleton-bound proteins, which take part in the remodeling of migratory cell architecture. SLK is also involved in mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways. It acts as an activator of Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and transactivates tumor suppressor p53.
