RPS6KA2 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein ribosomal protein S6 kinase A2, which is encoded by the RPS6KA2 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is a type of serine/threonine-protein kinase that acts downstream of ERK (MAPK1/ERK2 and MAPK3/ERK1) signaling and mediates mitogenic and stress-induced activation of transcription factors, regulates translation, and mediates cellular proliferation, survival, and differentiation. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 733 residues, a mass of 83.2 kDa, and is a member of the AGC Ser/Thr protein kinase protein family. It is known to be localized in the nucleus and cytoplasm and is reported to be widely expressed with higher expression in the lung, skeletal muscle, brain, uterus, ovary, thyroid and prostate. As many as 3 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally myristoylated and phosphorylated. Other alias names for this target include MAPKAPK1C, RSK, RSK3, S6K-alpha, S6K-alpha2, p90-RSK3, p90RSK2, and HU-2.
