General description

The p53 tumor-suppressor gene integrates numerous signals that control cell life and death. Several novel molecules involved in p53 signaling, including Chk2, p53R2, p53AIP1, Noxa, PIDD, and PID/MTA2, were recently discovered. The checkpoint kinase Chk2 is the mammalian homologue of yeast Cds1/Rad53. In response to DNA damage, the checkpoint kinase ATM phosphorylates and activates Chk2, which in turn directly phosphorylates and activates p53. Chk2 serves as ATM downstream effector to mediate activation of p53. Chk2 also phosphorylates and activates BRCA1, the product of a tumor suppressor gene that is mutated in breast and ovarian cancer.

Specificity

Chk2
Others not tested.
Predicted to cross-react with rat based on sequence homology.

Immunogen

Mixture of two GST fusion proteins corresponding to residues 1-223 and 217-543 of human Chk2

The integrity of the DNA damage response pathway is essential for prevention of neoplastic transformation. Several proteins involved in this pathway including p53, BRCA1, and ATM are frequently mutated in human cancer. Checkpoint kinase 2 (Chk2) is a DNA damage-activated

Tumor suppressor p53 is activated in response to numerous cellular stresses, including viral infection. However, whether murine gammaherpesvirus 68 (MHV68) provokes p53 during the lytic replication cycle has not been extensively evaluated. Here, we demonstrate that MHV68 lytic infection induces
