Protocols
- 2936:
- IHC / Paraffin, Western Blotting
Specificity / Sensitivity
Cyclin D3 (DCS22) Mouse mAb detects endogenous levels of total cyclin D3 protein. The antibody does not cross-react with cyclin D1 or cyclin D2.
Source / Purification
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with recombinant human cyclin D3 corresponding to residues 241-260.
Western Blotting
Western blot analysis of extracts from SK-N-MC, C6 and IMCD3 cells, using Cyclin D3 (DCS22) Mouse mAb.
IHC-P (paraffin)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human breast carcinoma, using Cyclin D3 (DCS22) Mouse mAb.
IHC-P (paraffin)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human lung carcinoma, using Cyclin D3 (DCS22) Mouse mAb.
Background
Activity of the cyclin-dependent kinases CDK4 and CDK6 is regulated by T-loop phosphorylation, by the abundance of their cyclin partners (the D-type cyclins), and by association with CDK inhibitors of the Cip/Kip or INK family of proteins (1). The inactive ternary complex of cyclin D/CDK4 and p27 Kip1 requires extracellular mitogenic stimuli for the release and degradation of p27 concomitant with a rise in cyclin D levels to affect progression through the restriction point and Rb-dependent entry into S-phase (2). The active complex of cyclin D/CDK4 targets the retinoblastoma protein for phosphorylation, allowing the release of E2F transcription factors that activate G1/S-phase gene expression (3). Levels of cyclin D protein drop upon withdrawal of growth factors through downregulation of protein expression and phosphorylation-dependent degradation (4).
Although the D-type cyclins are not fully redundant, cyclin D3, like D1, plays a prominent role in differentiation and proliferation, which correlates with higher expression levels of cyclin D3 in various cancers (5).
