NIMA Related Kinase 9 (NEK9) Antibody
NEK9, a member of the NIMA subfamily of Ser/Thr protein kinases, is a pleiotropic regulator of mitotic progression, participating in the control of spindle dynamics and chromosome separation. It phosphorylates different histones (serine and threonine residues on H3), myelin basic protein, beta-casein (serine residues), and BICD2. NEK9 is activated during mitosis by intramolecular autophosphorylation. Activity and autophosphorylation is activated by manganese >> magnesium ions, and is sensitive to increasing concentration of detergents. This protein is not cell-cycle regulated but activity is higher in G0-arrested cells. NEK is part of a homodimer that binds to Ran GTPase, and exhibits a greater affinity for Ran-GDP over Ran-GTP. Interaction is also noted with NEK6 and NEK7 family members. This cytoplasmic protein is most abundant in heart, liver, kidney and testis, and is also expressed in smooth muscle cells and fibroblasts. Expression varies mildly across the cell cycle, with highest expression observed in G1 and stationary-phase cells.
