What Does ASKA Stand For?

ASKA stands for Analog Sensitive Kinase Allele

ASKA, or Analog Sensitive Kinase Allele, refers to a specific genetic modification that creates a kinase variant with enhanced sensitivity to chemical inhibitors. This innovation allows for precise control over kinase activity in research and therapeutic contexts, facilitating the study of kinase functions and signaling pathways. ASKA technology enables researchers to dissect complex biological systems with improved accuracy by selectively modulating kinase activities in live cells.
