ANTI-CDK1

Anti-CDK1 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project (www.proteinatlas.org). Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit .

Anti-CDK1 Antibody detects endogenous levels of total CDK1 protein.

CDK1 (cyclin-dependent kinase 1) gene encodes a protein that belongs to the Ser/Thr protein kinase family. CDKs catalyze the transfer of phosphate from ATP to specific protein substrates and function in cell cycle processes. It forms a subunit of a protein kinase complex known as M-phase promoting factor (MPF). The complex is involved in G1/S and G2/M phase transitions of eukaryotic cell cycle. In the absence of interphase Cdks (Cdk2, Cdk3, Cdk4 and Cdk6), Cdk1 binds to all cyclins, phosphorylates the retinoblastoma protein pRb and regulates the expression of genes controlled by E2F transcription factors. It drives all the events required for mammalian cell division even in the absence of other Cdks. It functions in double-strand break (DSB)-induced homologous recombination at any stage of the cell cycle. It recruits single-stranded DNA-binding complex, RPA, and the Rad51 recombination protein at the DSB ends and ensures efficient 5′ to 3′ resection.
