It is with great pride and immense pleasure that we introduce the Creative Bioarray QualiStem® Alkaline Phosphatase Live Staining Kit which provides a fast, simple and sensitive method for AP detection without fixing the cells. The reagent is nontoxic to the cells and the fluorescent signal will be discharged from the cells by exocytosis completely within two hours after removal of the staining solution, allowing the cell to be used for follow-up studies
Details
The long form of sphingosine kinase 2 (Sphk2-L) is a species-specific isoform of the Sphk2 enzyme expressed in human but not in mouse. It is an N-terminal extended form of Sphk2, extended by 36 amino acids. It functions as expected, catalyzing the formation of sphingosine 1-phosphate from sphingosine, however it appears to have a decreased ability to inhibit DNA synthesis as compared to Sphk2-S (short form of Sphk2). Under normal cellular conditions, Sphk2-L does not appear to inhibit DNA synthesis, but under serum deprivation, SphK2-L translocates to the nucleus and accumlates. This accumlation may be involved in the cessation of cell proliferation or apoptosis depending on the cell type.
