AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra Human Phospho-PERK/EIF2AK3 (Thr982) Detection Kit, 100 Assay Points

Protein kinase-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK) also known as EIF2AK3 is an eIF2α kinase and transmembrane protein located in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane, activated by ER stress signals. PERK activation during ER stress involves autophosphorylation of its cytoplasmic kinase domain, with phosphorylation at Thr982 serving as a marker for activation. PERK supports tumor growth by reducing oxidative DNA damage and is linked to neurodegenerative diseases and various cancers.

The AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra Human Phospho-PERK (Thr982) Detection Kit is a sandwich immunoassay for the quantitative detection of phospho-PERK (Thr982) in cellular lysates, using Alpha Technology. This kit is specifically intended to quantify PERK and does not detect ERK1/2.
