General description
150 kDa
Rho-Associated Kinase (Rho-Kinase or ROK) has been classified into two isoforms: ROKα/ROCK-II and ROKβ/ROCK-I. These large cellular proteins (150-160 kDa), have been reported to be involved in the formation of stress fibers, focal adhesions and cardiac hypertonic responses. Current research suggests that ROK of smooth muscle may be involved in the contractile process via phosphorylation of MYPT1 and Myosin.
Immunogen
6His-tagged fusion protein corresponding to residues 2-543 of rat ROKα/ROCK-II.
Application
Detect ROKα/ROCK-II using this Anti-ROKα/ROCK-II Antibody, clone A9W4 validated for use in IP & WB.
Immunoprecipitation:
4 μL of a previous lot immunoprecipitated ROKα/ROCK-II from 500 μg of PC-12 lysate.

The GTPase RhoA has been implicated in various cellular activities, including the formation of stress fibers, motility, and cytokinesis. We recently reported on a p150 serine/threonine kinase (termed ROK alpha) binding RhoA only in its active GTP-bound state and on

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a leading cause of cancer deaths, but its molecular heterogeneity hampers the design of targeted therapies. Currently, the only therapeutic option for advanced HCC is Sorafenib, an inhibitor whose targets include RAF. Unexpectedly, RAF1 expression is

The Ras-related Rho family GTPases mediate signal transduction pathways that regulate a variety of cellular processes. Like Ras, the Rho proteins (which include Rho, Rac, and CDC42) interact directly with protein kinases, which are likely to serve as downstream effector

RhoGTPases organize the actin cytoskeleton to generate diverse polarities, from front-back polarity in migrating cells to dendritic spine morphology in neurons. For example, RhoA through its effector kinase, RhoA kinase (ROCK), activates myosin II to form actomyosin filament bundles and
