Overview:
RSK2 is a member of the RSK (ribosomal S6 kinase) family that consists of growth factor-regulated serine/threonine kinases. RSK2 has been shown to mediate growth factor signaling via RAS and MAPK leading to the induction of CREB serine-133 phosphorylation and activation of gene expression (1). Mutations in RSK2 have been shown to be responsible for Coffin-Lowry syndrome (CLS) which is a X-linked disorder characterized by severe psychomotor retardation, facial and digital dysmorphisms, and progressive skeletal deformations (2).
Gene Aliases:
RPS6KA3; HU-3; MAPKAPK1B; CLS; MRX19; ISPK-1; p90-RSK2; pp90RSK2; S6K-alpha3
Genbank Number:
NM_004586

我在做5RACE,选用TaKaRa公司的RNA反转录酶(RNaseH-),不知道这个酶好不好,有什么需要注意的。
没有序列识别的功能,他就是简单的催化相邻DNA链的5-P末端和3'-OH末端以磷酸二酯键结合的反应,需ATP作辅酶。 不仅可以催化粘性末端之间或平滑末端之间的DNA的连接,也催化DNA与RNA之间以及少数RNA之间的连接。
反转录酶(Reversetranscripatase)是以RNA为模板指导三磷酸脱氧核苷酸合成互补DNA(cDNA)的酶。哺乳类C型病毒的反转录酶和鼠类B型病毒的反转录酶都是一条多肽链。鸟类RNA病毒的反转录酶则由两上亚基结构。真核生物中也都分离出具有不同结构的反转录酶。
