    Protocol

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    Phospho-PANK4 (Thr406) (F5C5H) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of PANK4 protein only when phosphorylated at Thr406.

    Human

    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic phosphopeptide corresponding to residues surrounding Thr406 of human PANK4 protein.

    Background

    Pantothenate kinase (PANK) is an enzyme that is responsible for catalyzing the first step in coenzyme A (CoA) synthesis (1-4). There are four human PANK genes: PANK1, PANK2, PANK3, and PANK4 (1-4). PANK4 is ubiquitously expressed, but higher expression levels are observed in muscle (1,2). PANK4 expression is elevated in rat skeletal muscle under high glucose conditions (2). There is evidence that rat PANK4 colocalizes with pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) in vitro (2). PANK4 may also play a protective role in beta-cell apoptosis by lowering pro-caspase-9 levels (3). Research studies have shown that mutations in the PANK2 gene are associated with Neurodegeneration with Brain Iron Accumulation (NBIA), formerly known as Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome (1,4). Expression of hPANK4 in a Drosophila model of NBIA rescues the phenotype with the exception of infertility (4).

    Studies show that PI3K/Akt signaling induces de novo CoA biosynthesis. CoA is a key metabolic cofactor in many metabolic processes, including the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and fatty acid metabolism, and is synthesized from pantothenate, cysteine, and ATP. Phosphorylation of PANK4 at Thr406 by Akt decreases the suppression of CoA synthesis by PANK4 (5).
