COPS3 is a component of the COP9 signalosome complex (CSN), a complex involved in various
cellular and developmental processes.Individual subunits of the complex have been linked to various signal transduction pathways leading to gene expression and cell cycle control (1, 2).Subunit 3 (COPS3) possesses kinase activity that phosphorylates regulators involved in signal transduction.It phosphorylates I kappa-B alpha, p105, and c-Jun.It acts as a docking site for complex-mediated phosphorylation (3).COPS3 is suggested as a specific negative regulator of TNF- induced NF-kappaB activation pathways because its over- expression inhibits NF-kappaB activation (4).

Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
