Target
-
Function
Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase belonging to a proposed calcium-triggered signaling cascade. May be involved in transcriptional regulation. May be involved in regulation of microtubule dynamics. In vitro, phosphorylates CREB1, CREBBP, PRM2, MEF2A, MEF2D and STMN1/OP18. May be involved in spermatogenesis. May play a role in the consolidation/retention of hippocampus-dependent long-term memory. -
Tissue specificity
Expressed in epithelial ovarian cancer tissue. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. CAMK Ser/Thr protein kinase family. CaMK subfamily.
Contains 1 protein kinase domain. -
Post-translational
modificationsAutophosphorylated and phosphorylated by CAMKK1 and CAMKK2 (By similarity). Dephosphorylated by serine/threonine protein phosphatase 2A, probably on Thr-200. -
Cellular localization
Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Substantial localization in certain neuronal nuclei. In spermatids associated with chromatin and nuclear matrix. - Information by UniProt

Immunofluorescence analysis of CaM Kinase IV in SH-SY5Y cells using ab3557. The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton™ X-100, and blocked with 1% BSA. The cells were labeled with ab3557 at 2 µg/mL in 0.1% BSA and incubated for 3 hours at room temperature followed by Alexa Fluor® 488 conjugate Goat anti-Rabbit IgG (H+L) at a 1/2000 for 45 minutes at room temperature (Panel a: green). Nuclei (Panel b: blue) were stained with DAPI. F-actin (Panel c: red) was stained with Alexa Fluor® 555 Rhodamine Phalloidin at 1/300 dilution. Panel d represents the merged image showing cytoplasmic localization. Panel e shows the no primary antibody control. The images were captured at 60X magnification.

Immunohistochemistry analysis of CaM Kinase IV using ab3557 at 1/100 dilution for 1 hour at 37ºC showing staining in the cytoplasm and nucleus of paraffin-embedded human brain tissue (right) compared to a negative control without primary antibody (left) followed by an HRP-conjugated secondary antibody followed by colorimetric detection using a DAB kit. Tissues were counterstained with hematoxylin. Antigen retrieval was performed using 10mM sodium citrate (pH 6.0), microwaved for 8-15 min. Following antigen retrieval, tissues were blocked in 3% H2O2-methanol for 15 min at room temperature.
