TNIK Protein, Human (Sf9, His)

TNIK protein is a key activator of the Wnt signaling pathway and regulates gene expression by phosphorylating TCF4/TCF7L2 at the promoter of Wnt target genes. TNIK is located upstream of the JUN N-terminal pathway and contributes to the complex Wnt signaling cascade. TNIK Protein, Human (Sf9, His) is the recombinant human-derived TNIK protein, expressed by Sf9 insect cells , with N-8*His labeled tag. The total length of TNIK Protein, Human (Sf9, His) is 304 a.a., .

TNIK, a serine/threonine kinase, emerges as a pivotal activator of the Wnt signaling pathway, playing a crucial role in gene expression regulation. Its involvement extends to the phosphorylation of TCF4/TCF7L2 at promoters of Wnt target genes, thereby facilitating their activation. Positioned upstream of the JUN N-terminal pathway, TNIK contributes to the intricate cascade of Wnt signaling. Beyond its canonical functions, TNIK is implicated in the response to environmental stress and forms part of a signaling complex, comprising NEDD4, RAP2A, and TNIK, which orchestrates neuronal dendrite extension and arborization during development. In a broader context, TNIK exhibits potential roles in cytoskeletal rearrangements and the regulation of cell spreading. Notably, it exerts its influence by phosphorylating SMAD1 at Thr-322, thereby expanding its regulatory repertoire in diverse cellular processes.
