  • Experimental Validation Results for PERK Antibody (YA233)
    Western blot analysis was performed on extracts from Hela (lane 1, 20 μg), C6 (lane 2, 20 μg), and 293T (lane 3, 20 μg) using PERK Rabbit mAb.Proteins were transferred to a PVDF membrane and blocked with 5% non - fat milk in TBST at 4°C overnight.The primary antibody (1:1000 dilution) and the loading control antibody (beta-Actin, HY-P83730, 1:5000 dilution) were incubated in 5% non-fat milk in TBST for 1 hour at 37°C.Goat Anti - Rabbit IgG - HRP Secondary Antibody (1:20000 dilution) was then applied for 40 minutes at 37°C.

Background

  • Function

    Protein kinase R (PKR) -like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK) is one of four known kinases that respond to cellular stress by deactivating the eukaryotic initiation factor 2 α (eIF2α) or other signal transduction cascades. PERK is highly expressed in pancreatic beta-cells and is essential in the beta-cell's development, differentiation and function.

    PERK is a type I ER membrane protein containing a stress-sensing domain facing the ER lumen, a transmembrane segment, and a cytosolic kinase domain. Increase in unfolded proteins in the ER causes release of ER chaperones from the stress-sensing domain of PERK, which results in its activation via oligomerization and autophosphorylation at multiple serine, threonine, and tyrosine residues. Upon activation, PERK phosphorylates eIF2α at serine 51, rendering it an inhibitor of the ribosome translation initiation complex, consequently reducing overall protein synthesis. The reduction in translation reduces the ER burden, providing time for the cell to process or degrade the accumulated unfolded proteins to restore ER homeostasis. Although global protein synthesis is decreased, there is specific increased translation of certain mRNAs, such as ATF4, which modulate cellular survival pathways and enhance UPR function. Interfering with PERK function in cancer cells may limit their ability to thrive under hypoxia or nutrient deprived conditions and lead to apoptosis or tumor growth inhibition.

  • Subcellular Localization

    Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein

  • Expression


    Tissue_specificity:It is widely distributed and highly expressed in secretory tissues.

    Induction:By endoplasmic reticulum stress

  • Subunit

    Forms dimers with HSPA5/BIP in resting cells (PubMed:11907036). Homotetramerizes in response to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, leading to its activation (PubMed:25925385). Interacts with HSP90B1/GRP94 (PubMed:11907036). Interacts with DNAJC3; inhibiting EIF2AK3/PERK activity (By similarity). Interacts with ATAD3A; ATAD3A and EIF2S1/eIF-2-alpha occupy a common binding site within the cytoplasmic loop of EIF2AK3/PERK, leading to prevent EIF2AK3/PERK association with its substrate EIF2S1/eIF-2-alpha (PubMed:39116259). Interacts with MFN2 (By similarity). Interacts with TMEM33 (PubMed:26268696). Interacts with PDIA6 (PubMed:24508390). Interacts with LACC1 (PubMed:31875558)
