PKIB, also known as cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor beta, is a member of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor family. This protein may interact with the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase and act as a competitive inhibitor. At least three alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been reported. Source: Recombinant corresponding to aa1-78 from human PKIB, fused to His-tag at N-terminus expressed in E.coli. Amino Acid Sequence: MGSSHHHHHH SSGLVPRGSH MRTDSSKMTD VESGVANFAS SARAGRRNAL PDIQSSAATD GTSDLPLKLE ALSVKEDAKE KDEKTTQDQL EKPQNEEK Molecular Weight: ~10.6kD (98aa) confirmed by MALDI-TOF Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20C. Aliquots are stable for 6 months after receipt at -20C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
