The UHMK1 Polyclonal Antibody (PAC053882) is a valuable tool for researchers studying the U2AF homology motif kinase 1 (UHMK1) protein. This antibody, produced in rabbits, exhibits high reactivity with human samples and is suitable for use in Western blot applications. By specifically binding to UHMK1, researchers can accurately detect and analyze this protein in various cell types, making it an ideal choice for studies in cell biology, signal transduction, and cancer research.UHMK1, also known as KIS, is a serine/threonine kinase involved in various cellular processes, including cell cycle regulation, apoptosis, and transcriptional activation.
Dysregulation of UHMK1 has been implicated in cancer progression, making it a promising target for therapeutic interventions. By investigating the function and mechanisms of UHMK1, researchers can gain insights into the development and progression of cancer, as well as identify potential therapeutic strategies targeting this protein.

Background:
Upon serum stimulation, phosphorylates CDKN1B/p27Kip1, thus controlling CDKN1B subcellular location and cell cycle progression in G1 phase. May be involved in trafficking and/or processing of RNA (By similarity).

NCBI Summary:
The gene encodes a serine/threonine protein kinase that promotes cell cycle progression through G1 by phosphorylation of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1B (p27Kip1), which causes nuclear export and degradation. The encoded protein is also thought to function in the adult nervous system and the gene has been associated with schizophrenia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
