An E.coli-derived zebrafish Cask recombinant protein (amino acids R27-D492) was used as the immunogen for the Zebrafish Cask antibody.
Peripheral plasma membrane protein CASK is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CASK gene. This gene encodes a calcium/calmodulin-dependent serine protein kinase. The encoded protein is a MAGUK (membrane-associated guanylate kinase) protein family member. These proteins are scaffold proteins and the encoded protein is located at synapses in the brain. Mutations in this gene are associated with FG syndrome 4, intellectual disability and microcephaly with pontine and cerebellar hypoplasia, and a form of X-linked intellectual disability. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
