Target
-
Function
Phosphorylates MAP kinase p38. Seems to be active only in mitosis. May also play a role in the activation of lymphoid cells. When phosphorylated, forms a complex with TP53, leading to TP53 destabilization and attenuation of G2/M checkpoint during doxorubicin-induced DNA damage. -
Tissue specificity
Expressed in the testis and placenta. In the testis, restrictedly expressed in outer cell layer of seminiferous tubules. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Ser/Thr protein kinase family. MAP kinase kinase subfamily.
Contains 1 protein kinase domain. -
Post-translational
modificationsPhosphorylated; in a cell-cycle dependent manner at mitosis. - Information by UniProt

Predicted band size: 36 kDa
Observed band size: 40 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?Lanes 1- 2: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab236871 observed at 40 kDa. Red - Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Loading Control (ab7291) observed at 50 kDa.
ab236871 was shown to react with PBK/SPK in wild-type HEK-293T cells in western blot. Loss of signal was observed when knockout cell line ab266827 (knockout cell lysate ab257575) was used. Wild-type HEK-293T and PBK knockout HEK-293T cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab236871 and Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Loading Control (ab7291) overnight at 4°C at a 1 in 1000 dilution and a 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye®800CW) preadsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye®680RD) preadsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1 in 20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human testis tissue labeling PBK/SPK with ab236871 at 1/2000 dilution, followed by Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) Ready to use. Positive staining in germ cells of human testis (PMID:16982762; PMID:25909225) is observed. Counterstained with hematoxylin.
Secondary antibody only control: Used PBS instead of primary antibody, secondary antibody is Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) Ready to use.

ab236871 was shown to specifically react with PBK/SPK in wild-type HAP1 cells as signal was lost in PBK/SPK knockout cells. Wild-type and PBK/SPK knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab236871 and ab181602 (Rabbit anti-GAPDH loading control) were incubated 1 hour at room temperature at 1/1000 dilution and 1/200,000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG, (H+L), Peroxidase conjugated (ab97051) secondary antibody at 1/100,000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.
