    Protocol

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    CDK2 (E8J9T) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total CDK2 protein. In rodent cell lines, isoforms 1 and 2 of CDK2 run as two distinct bands by western blot. This antibody non-specifically labels the muscle in the mouse retina and the vasculature in the mouse brain by immunofluorescence.

    Species Reactivity:

    Human, Mouse, Rat

    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Pro294 of human CDK2 protein.

    Background

    Cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (p33CDK2) is an important component of the cell cycle machinery. Like p34cdc2, kinase activity is regulated by phosphorylation state as well as association with a cyclin subunit and a CDK inhibitor. Inhibitory phosphorylation occurs on Thr14 and Tyr15 (1). Inhibition of CDK2-cyclin complexes can also be attributed to association with p27 Kip1 and p21 Waf1/Cip1 (2). Activation of CDK2 complexes requires dephosphorylation of Thr14 and Tyr15 by cdc25 phosphatase and phosphorylation of Thr160 (3), which is mediated by CAK, a complex of CDK7 and cyclin H (4). CDK2/cyclin E kinase activity is important for the G1 to S transition and phosphorylation of the Rb protein. During S-phase, active CDK2/cyclin A complexes predominate and phosphorylate E2F and the active CDK2 complex persists in the nucleus throughout G2 (5).

    Alternate Names

    cdc2-related protein kinase; CDK2; CDKN2; cell devision kinase 2; Cell division protein kinase 2; cyclin dependent kinase 2; Cyclin-dependent kinase 2; p33 protein kinase; p33(CDK2)
