General description

158 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. The serine-threonine kinase ROCK-1 is a down-stream effector of Rho, and is involved in signal transduction pathways that regulate cell morphology, motility, and tumor progression through the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton.

Immunogen

Recent studies have shown that the Eph receptor A2 (EphA2) and its inhibitor ALW-II-41-27 could regulate various cellular processes in several types of cancer. However, the manner in which ALW-II-41-27 affects the development of cervical cancer (CC) remains unknown. The

The myotonic dystrophy kinase-related CDC42-binding kinases MRCKα and MRCKβ regulate actin-myosin contractility and have been implicated in cancer metastasis. Along with the related ROCK1 and ROCK2 kinases, the MRCK proteins initiate signalling events that lead to contractile force generation which

The RhoA and RhoC GTPases act via the ROCK1 and ROCK2 kinases to promote actomyosin contraction, resulting in directly induced changes in cytoskeleton structures and altered gene transcription via several possible indirect routes. Elevated activation of the Rho/ROCK pathway has
