For maximum recovery please spin prior to use. Unless noted below, aliquots of the 5 µg, 10 µg and 20 µg sizes of kinase are not recommended as materials can be used in original packaging until exhausted. For larger sizes, the number of freeze/thaws may be reduced by preparing aliquots, aliquots below 20 µL are not recommended. Please never store a kinase diluted. If properly stored at -80C, this product is guaranteed for 6 months from date of purchase.
Protein Form: Catalytic
RPS6KB1 (p70S6K) is a serine/threonine kinase with 2 non-identical kinase catalytic domains which phosphorylates several residues of the S6 ribosomal protein. p70 S6 kinase is predominantly localized in the cytoplasm, and is essential in growth factors regulated cell proliferation, pathways involving cell motility, such as metastases, the immune response, and tissue repair. p70 S6 kinase acts downstream of phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase, and its main physiological target is the S6 ribosomal protein, which is involved in upregulation of protein synthesis. The kinase activity of p70 S6 kinase leads to an increase in protein synthesis and cell proliferation. Amplification of the region of DNA encoding p70 S6 kinase and overexpression are seen in some breast cancer cell lines.
