CaM Kinase II (Ca 2+ /calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II) is a multifunctional Ca 2+ /calmodulin-dependent serine/threonine kinase which is able to phosphorylate a variety of proteins in response to Ca 2+ signals. This kinase participates in the regulation of numerous cellular functions including: 1) metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, and amino acids, 2) neurotransmitter synthesis and release, 3) regulation of ion flux through ion channels, 4) Ca 2+ homeostasis, 5) cytoskeletal function, and 6) Ca 2+ -regulated changes in gene expression. CaM kinase II is broadly expressed and is highly concentrated in brain particularly in cortical structure and hippocampus. This kinase also plays an essential role in induction of long-term potentiation. Purified rat brain CaM kinase has an apparent molecular weight of ~540kD and consists of isozymes composed of various ratios of 54kD (a), 58kD (b’), 60kD (b), 59kD (g) and 60kD (d) in a holoenzyme containing 10–12 subunits. The primary difference in the subunit isoforms lies in the variable region located at the carboxyl-end of the calmodulin binding domain. Ca 2+ /calmodulin-stimulated autophosphorylation of CaM kinase II occurs on multiple residues. In particular, autophosphorylation on residue Thr 286 /Thr 287 within the regulatory domain results in full activation of the enzyme, and in the generation of Ca 2+ /calmodulin-independent activity. Autophosphorylation has also been reported to increase the affinity of CaM kinase for Ca 2+ /calmodulin.

Applications:
Suitable for use in FLISA, Immunohistochemistry, Immunoprecipitation and Western Blot. Other applications not tested.

Recommended Dilutions:
Immunohistochemistry: Paraffin sections
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.

Storage and Stability:
Store product at 4°C in the dark. DO NOT FREEZE! Stable at 4°C for 12 months after receipt as an undiluted liquid. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Caution: PE conjugates are sensitive to light. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial prior to removing the cap. 

Note: Applications are based on unconjugated antibody.
