Preparation and Storage

Background: SNF1LK2/SIK2

SNF1LK2 (Sucrose non-fermenting 1 like kinase 2) also known as SIK2 (Salt-inducible kinase 2) is a cytoplasmic 125 kDa member of the CAMK Ser/Thr protein kinase family, AMPK subfamily of enzymes. It is expressed in preadipocytes/adipocytes, with levels strongly induced during early differentiation. SNF1LK2 regulates the early phase of insulin signaling by phosphorylating IRS-1 on Ser794. Human SNF1LK2 is 926 amino acids (aa) in length and contains a protein kinase domain (aa 20‑271) with an ATP binding site (Lys49) and a catalytic loop (aa 140‑149), followed by a phosphorylation activation site at Thr175, a UBA (ubiquitin-associated) domain (aa 295‑335) and another PKA-dependent phosphorylation site at Ser587.
