KSR2 Antibody

1. These observations suggest that, in the brain, KSR2 regulates energy balance via control of feeding behavior and adaptive thermogenesis, while a second KSR2-dependent mechanism, functioning through one or more other tissues, modulates sensitivity to leptin and activators of the energy sensor AMPK. PMID: 28180061
2. A pleiotropic effect of KSR2-rs7973260 was found on the risk of metabolic syndrome, severe hypertriglyceridemia, and diabetes. PMID: 28537769
3. KSR2 deficiency affects stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1)/ORAI1 puncta formation, which is correlated with cytoskeleton disorganization. PMID: 24672054
4. Study explored the role of KSR2 in humans by sequencing 2,101 individuals with severe early-onset obesity and identified multiple rare variants in KSR2 that disrupt signaling through the Raf-MEKERK pathway and impair cellular fatty acid oxidation and glucose oxidation in transfected cells. PMID: 24209692
5. study demonstrated that miR-31 upregulated IL-2 expression via reduction of its up-stream kinase suppressor, KSR2, and is a component of T cell activation PMID: 23303246
6. The involvement of KSR2 in regulation of cell proliferation was predicted by a KSR2-centered network analysis. PMID: 21403620
7. KSR interacts with a regulatory Raf molecule in cis to induce a conformational switch of MEK, facilitating MEK's phosphorylation by a separate catalytic Raf molecule in trans PMID: 21441910
8. Oncoprotein Cot1 represses kinase suppressors of Ras1/2 and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-induced differentiation of human acute myeloid leukemia cells. PMID: 20945381
9. Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator) PMID: 19913121
10. Observational study of gene-disease association, gene-environment interaction, and pharmacogenomic / toxicogenomic. (HuGE Navigator) PMID: 20628086
11. Clinical trial of gene-disease association and gene-environment interaction. (HuGE Navigator) PMID: 20379614
12. hKSR-2, a new member of the KSR family, negatively regulates Cot-mediated MAP kinase and NF-kappaB pathway signaling PMID: 12975377
13. We find that while hKSR-2 blocks MEKK3 activation, it has little to no effect on other members of the MAP3K family, including MEKK4, TAK1, and Ras-Raf, suggesting that its effects are selective. PMID: 16039990
14. These results demonstrate that kinase suppressor of Ras 2 is a direct target of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3)in HL60 cells, and is required for optimal monocytic differentiation. PMID: 17599832
15. KSR-2 may act as a scaffold protein similar as KSR-1 to mediate the MAPK core (RAF-MEK-ERK) signaling but with a distinct RAF isoform specificity; KSR-2 may only mediate the A-RAF signaling while KSR-1 transduces signals only from c-RAF. PMID: 19563921
