A synthesized peptide derived from human Phospho-Chk1 (S296)
Conjugation:
Unconjugated
Alternative Names:
Checkpoint, S. pombe, homolog of, 1, CHEK1, CHK1, CHK1 checkpoint homolog (S. pombe), Serine/threonine-protein kinase Chk1,
Chk1 kinase acts downstream of ATM/ATR kinase and plays an important role in DNA damage checkpoint control, embryonic development, and tumor suppression. Activation of Chk1 involves phosphorylation at Ser317 and Ser345 by ATM/ATR, followed by autophosphorylation of Ser296. Activation occurs in response to blocked DNA replication and certain forms of genotoxic stress.
