MAK Antibody (C-Terminal Region), 100 ug

Serine/threonine-protein kinase MAK (Male germ cell-associated kinase) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MAK gene. The product of this gene is a serine/threonine protein kinase related to kinases involved in cell cycle regulation. Studies of the mouse and rat homologs have localized the kinase to the chromosomes during meiosis in spermatogenesis, specifically to the synaptonemal complex that exists while homologous chromosomes are paired. Mutations in this gene have been associated with ciliary defects resulting in retinitis pigmentosa 62.
