Recombinant full-length human JNK3 was expressed by baculovirus in Sf9 insect cells using an N-terminal GST tag. JNK3 is a member of the c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNKs), which are part of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase family.

• Easily Screen and Profile JNK3 Kinase Inhibitors
• Includes kinase, substrate and reaction buffer
• Use with ADP-Glo™ Assay for bioluminescent detection of kinase activity

Recombinant full-length human JNK3 was expressed by baculovirus in Sf9 insect cells using an N-terminal GST tag. JNK3 is a member of the c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNKs), which are part of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase family and regulate signal transduction in response to environmental stress. JNK3 phosphorylates various transcription factors such as ATF2, Elk-1 and members of the Jun family. Activation and nuclear localization of JNK3, a neuronal-specific isoform of JNK, has been associated with hypoxic and ischemic damage of CA1 neurons in the hippocampus. Knockout mice lacking JNK3 showed reduced apoptosis of hippocampal neurons and reduced seizure induced by kainic acid, a glutamate-receptor agonist. ADP-Glo Kinase Assay is a luminescent kinase assay that measures ADP formed from a kinase reaction; ADP is converted into ATP, which is a substrate in a reaction catalyzed by Ultra-Glo Luciferase that produces light. The luminescent signal positively correlates with ADP amount and kinase activity. The assay is well suited for measuring the effects chemical compounds have on the activity of a broad range of purified kinases, making it ideal for both primary screening as well as kinase selectivity profiling. The ADP-Glo Kinase Assay can be used to monitor the activity of virtually any ADP-generating enzyme (e.g., kinase or ATPase) using up to 1mM ATP.
