Gene Information

human ... WNK1(65125)

General description

The WNK1 gene encodes a cytoplasmic serine-threonine kinase expressed in distal nephron.[supplied by OMIM]
WNK1 (WNK lysine deficient protein kinase 1) gene is mapped to human chromosome 12p13.33. The gene is ubiquitously expressed. The encoded protein contain an active PY motif of short linear proline sequence.

Immunogen

WNK1 (Q9H4A3, 2266-2302)
This antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide selected from the C-terminal region of human WNK1.

Biochem/physiol Actions

WNK is known to influence the activity of chloride transporters such as members of the SLC12 family. WNK1 regulates ion transportation in kidney and maintains chloride concentration in the neurons. It maintains cell volume during the change in the solute concentration. Osmotic stress and chloride depletion within the cell upregulates WNK1 (WNK lysine deficient protein kinase 1) expression. Mutations in WNK1 leads to familial hyperkalemic hypertension, a Mendelian disorder characterized with thiazide-sensitive hypertension, hyperkalemia, and normal glomerular filtration rate. It is associated with hereditary syndromes like renal disease pseudohypoaldosteronism type II (PHAII) and the neurological disease hereditary sensory neuropathy 2.

Physical form

Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide.

The K(+)-Cl(-) cotransporters (KCC1-KCC4) encompass a branch of the SLC12 family of electroneutral cation-coupled chloride cotransporters that translocate ions out of the cell to regulate various factors, including cell volume and intracellular chloride concentration, among others.

Alternatively spliced proline-rich cassettes link WNK1 to aldosterone action.

The thiazide-sensitive NaCl cotransporter (NCC) is important for renal salt handling and blood-pressure homeostasis. The canonical NCC-activating pathway consists of With-No-Lysine (WNK) kinases and their downstream effector kinases SPAK and OSR1, which phosphorylate NCC directly. The upstream mechanisms that connect
With no lysine L-WNK1 isoforms are negative regulators of the K+-Cl- cotransporters.
