Related Product Information for MEK4 recombinant protein
Recombinant full-length human MEK4 was expressed by baculovirus in Sf9 insect cells using an N-terminal GST tag. The gene accession number is NM_003010.
Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 4 (MEK4 or MKK4) is dual specificity kinase of the STE7 family that phosphorylates and activates JNK1 and -2 as well as p38. MKK4 preferentially phosphorylates the tyrosine residue of JNKs. Mediates a variety of physiological and pathophysiological processes such as responses to cellular stresses and inflammatory cytokines. MKK4 is important for carcinogenesis, a loss-off-function mutation in MKK4 was found in lung and pancreatic tumors. Conversely, a pro-oncogenic role was also found for MKK4.

Product Notes
The MEK4 (Catalog #AAA73651) is a Recombinant Protein produced from Sf9 insect cells and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's MEK4 (MAP2K4) can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, WB (Western Blot), Kinase Assay. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the MEK4 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "MEK4 (MAP2K4), Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
