Anti-NUAK1 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein NUAK family kinase 1. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 661 amino acid residues and a mass of 74.3 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the nucleus and cytoplasm. Up to 2 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is notably expressed at high levels in the heart and brain, and at lower levels in skeletal muscle, kidney, ovary, placenta, lung and liver. A member of the CAMK Ser/Thr protein kinase protein family, NUAK1 is known to be a protein kinase involved in various processes such as cell adhesion, regulation of cell ploidy and senescence, cell proliferation and tumor progression. Synonyms for this target antigen include NUAK family SNF1-like kinase 1, AMP-activated protein kinase family member 5, AMPK-related protein kinase 5, NUAK family, SNF1-like kinase, 1, omphalocele kinase 1, and ARK5. A number of NUAK1 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
