Detection of Human, Mouse, and Rat Casein Kinase 2 alpha by Western Blot. Western blot shows lysates of HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma cell line, MOLT-4 human acute lymphoblastic leukemia cell line, NIH-3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cell line, C6 rat glioma cell line, and Rat-2 rat embryonic fibroblast cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Mouse Anti-Human Casein Kinase 2a Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB7957) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (HAF018). A specific band was detected for Casein Kinase 2a at approximately 42 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.

Casein Kinase 2 alpha in HEK293 Human Cell Line. Casein Kinase 2a was detected in immersion fixed HEK293 human embryonic kidney cell line using Mouse Anti-Human Casein Kinase 2a Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB7957) at 25 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (yellow, upper panel; NL007) and counterstained with DAPI (blue, lower panel). Specific staining was localized to nuclei. View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Cells on Coverslips.

Knockout Validated Western Blot Shows Human Casein Kinase 2 alpha Specificity Using Knockout Cell Line. View Larger

Western Blot Shows Human Casein Kinase 2 alpha Specificity Using Knockout Cell Line. Western blot shows lysates of HAP1 human colorectal carcinoma cell line and Casein Kinase 2 alpha knockout HAP1 cell line (KO). Nitrocellulose membrane was probed with 0.5 µg/mL of Mouse Anti-Human Casein Kinase 2a Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB7957) followed by HRP-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG Secondary Antibody. A specific band was detected for Casein Kinase 2 alpha at approximately 47 kDa (as indicated) in the parental HAP1 cell line, but is not detectable in knockout HAP1 cell line. The Ponceau stained transfer of the blot is shown. This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions. Image, protocol, and testing courtesy of YCharOS Inc.

Knockout Validated Casein Kinase 2 alpha Specificity is Shown by Immunocytochemistry in Knockout Cell Line. View Larger

Casein Kinase 2 alpha Specificity is Shown by Immunocytochemistry in Knockout Cell Line. HAP1 WT and Casein Kinase 2 alpha KO cells were labelled with a green or a far-red fluorescent dye, respectively. Cells were stained with Mouse Anti-Human Casein Kinase 2 alpha Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB7957) followed by incubation with a goat anti-mouse Alexa-fluor 555 coupled secondary antibody (upper panel). DAPI-only counterstained cells shown on a lower panel. Acquisition of the blue (nucleus-DAPI), green (identification of WT cells), red (antibody staining) and far-red (identification of KO cells) channels was performed.

Background: Casein Kinase 2 alpha

Casein kinase 2 (CK2) is a ubiquitous and constitutively active tetrameric serine/threonine kinase that is comprised of two catalytic subunits (CK2 alpha and/or CK2 alpha ‘) and two identical regulatory subunits (CK2 beta ). CK2 has been implicated in numerous cellular processes, including signal transduction, transcription, translation, replication, and metabolic pathways. CK2 is known to phosphorylate more than 300 different substrates. Phosphorylation of cell-cycle proteins such as p53, p34cdc2, p27KIP1, and MDM-2 account for the ability of CK2 to induce proliferation, while the phosphorylation of HS1, Bid, and Max account for its antiapoptotic role. The human CK2 alpha and CK2 alpha ‘ subunits are the products of two different genes. They have highly conserved catyalytic domains but divergent C-terminal regions. Within aa 253-391 (including the region of divergence between CK2 alpha and CK2 alpha ’), the 35-45 kDa human CK2 alpha shares 96% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat CK2 alpha. An alternatively spliced isoform of human CK2 alpha lacks the N-terminal 136 amino acids including a portion of the kinase domain. CK2 beta plays dual roles in the regulation of CK2 acivity. Its C-terminal domain is responsible for stable interactions with the catalytic subunit and increased catalytic activity following tetramer formation, while the N-terminal domain exerts negative regulation on the catalytic activity of CK2.
