The CERK Polyclonal Antibody from MyBioSource.com is a Rabbit Polyclonal antibody to ceramide kinase, and CERK. This antibody recognizes Human, Mouse, and Rat antigen. The CERK Polyclonal Antibody has been shown to work in the following applications: ELISA, and Immunohistochemistry.
Description
CERK converts ceramide to ceramide 1-phosphate (C1P), a sphingolipid metabolite. Both CERK and C1P have been implicated in various cellular processes, including proliferation, apoptosis, phagocytosis, and inflammation. Catalyzes specifically the phosphorylation of ceramide to form ceramide 1-phosphate. Acts efficiently on natural and analog ceramides (C6, C8, C16 ceramides, and C8-dihydroceramide), to a lesser extent on C2-ceramide and C6-dihydroceramide, but not on other lipids, such as various sphingosines. Binds phosphoinositides
