Background Information

CaMKII alpha, also named CAMKA and KIAA0968, belongs to the protein kinase superfamily, CAMK Ser/Thr protein kinase family, and CaMK subfamily. CaM-kinase II (CAMK2) is a prominent kinase in the central nervous system that may function in long-term potentiation and neurotransmitter release. It is a member of the NMDAR signaling complex in excitatory synapses it may regulate NMDAR-dependent potentiation of the AMPAR and synaptic plasticity. This antibody is specific to CAMK2A.
