| Application: | Anti-TNIK antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige . |

| Biochem/physiol Actions: | TNIK (TRAF2 and NCK interacting kinase) is a protein kinase belonging to the germinal center kinase family. It consists of an N-terminal kinase domain. It is localized in the nucleus. TNIK is highly involved in the cytoskeleton assembly and neuronal dendrite extension. In cytoskeleton arrangement, it directly interacts with Rap2 for the proper distribution and spreading of cells. It also stimulates c-Jun N-terminal kinase for the cytoskeleton regulation. TNIK acts as transcription activator during Wnt signaling, which is an essetial step for several physiological processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, motility, apoptosis. It also plays an important role in the intestinal crypts and colorectal cancer cells. It has been suggested that TNIK can be a potential pharmacological kinase inhibitor for the treatment of colorectal cancer. |

| Features and Benefits: | Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section. Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways: • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues. • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments. |
