ROKα/ROCK-II, active, rat
N-terminal 6His-tagged, fusion protein corresponding to amino acids 2-543 of rat ROKa/ROCK-II. Note: The preparation contains numerous Sf21 cellular proteins which bind weakly to Ni-NTA agarose.
Biological information
Background
Rho-associated, coiled-coil containing protein kinase (ROCK), including the ROCK1 and ROCK2 isoforms, is a protein kinase involved in signaling from Rho to actin cytoskeleton. PKA and the two ROCKs have been reported to have opposite effects on neurite formation. More studies are needed to provide significant insights into the role of ROCK in several pathological processes. ROCK inhibitors have been shown the benefit for treatment of various cancers, inflammation, coronary artery spasms and hypertension.
