PA1-24578 detects P21-Activated Kinase 6 (PAK6) in Human samples.
PA1-24578 has been successfully used in Immunohistochemistry (paraffin) procedures.
PA1-24578 immunogen corresponds to Synthetic peptide - KLH conjugated.
PAK6 is a serine/threonine kinase expressed in the testis and prostate. It associates with both the estrogen and androgen receptors. The p21-activated kinases (PAKs) are serine-threonine kinases that bind to the active forms of Cdc42 and Rac. They are divided into two groups, the first of which include PAK1, 2 and 3, and can be activated by Cdc42/Rac binding. Group 1 PAKs contain an autoinhibitory domain whose activity is regulated by Cdc42/Rac binding. The group 1 PAKs are known to be involved in cellular processes such as gene transcription, apoptosis, and cell morphology and motility. Much less is known about the second group, which includes PAK4, 5 and 6. These proteins are not activated by Cdc42/Rac binding. Later experiments have shown it to be activated by MAP kinase kinase 6 and p38 MAP kinase, suggesting that PAK6 may play a role in the cellular response to stress-related signals.
