The antibody targets the phosphorylated form of CSNK1A1, a serine/threonine kinase involved in numerous cellular processes, including Wnt signaling, circadian rhythm regulation, and mTOR pathway modulation. Phosphorylation at Y321 is a critical post-translational modification that enhances the kinase's activity in these pathways . The antibody is generated using a synthetic peptide immunogen spanning amino acids 287–336, ensuring specificity for the phosphorylated epitope .
The antibody is validated for multiple experimental techniques:
CSNK1A1 is a multifunctional kinase:
Wnt Signaling: Phosphorylates β-catenin (CTNNB1) at Ser-45 to regulate its degradation .
Circadian Rhythms: Modulates Period proteins (PER1/PER2) to synchronize biological clocks .
mTOR Pathway: Activates mTORC1/C2 by phosphorylating DEPTOR inhibitors .
Inflammation: Inhibits NLRP3 inflammasome assembly via phosphorylation .
The antibody’s ability to detect Y321 phosphorylation provides insights into these pathways’ activation states .
