Anti-ILK, CT (Integrin Linked Kinase, Integrin-linked Protein Kinase, 59kD Serine/threonine Protein

Transduction of extracellular matrix signals through integrins influences intracellular and extracellular functions, and appears to require interaction of integrin cytoplasmic domains with cellular proteins. Integrin-linked kinase (ILK), interacts with the cytoplasmic domain of beta-1 integrin. ILK encodes a predicted 451aa protein, with an apparent molecular weight of 59kD. The ILK protein is a serine/threonine protein kinase with 4 ankyrin-like repeats. ILK regulates integrin-mediated signal transduction.
