| Application: | All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry. The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | PASK (PAS domain-containing serine/threonine-protein kinase) is a serine/threonine protein kinase, which controls insulin gene transcription by regulating PDX1 (pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1) phosphorylation. Presence of glucose induces the expression of PASK in pancreatic β cells. PASK also controls glycogen synthase and thereby is important for cellular energy homeostasis. PASK is also suggested to be involved in regulation of eukaryotic translation elongation factor eEF1A1 through phosphorylation. It is down-regulated in islets of humans suffering from type-2 diabetes. |
| Features and Benefits: | Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section. Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways: • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues. • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments. |
| General description: | The gene PASK (PAS domain-containing serine/threonine-protein kinase) is mapped to human chromosome 2q37. The protein is present in the cytoplasm as well as nucleus. PASK contains two PAS (Per-ARNT-Sim) domains and a kinase domain. |
| Immunogen: | PAS domain-containing serine/threonine-protein kinase recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST) |
