| Packaging: | 0.5 ml protein A purified Rabbit antisera. |
| Uses: | Western Blotting: use at 2hrs at RT. By Western blot, this antibody detects a band of 54 kDa, which corresponds to the predicted molecular weight of Cdk 8. |
| Localization: | Nuclear and cytoplasmic. |
| Background: | A family of proteins designated as cdks are critical regulators of cell cycle progression. The prototype member of this family, p34 / Cdc2, and a related protein Cdk2, function late in the cycle while Cdk4 and Cdk6 are critically involved in G1 to S progression. p54 / Cdk8 interacts exclusively with CyclinC. The Cdk8-CyclinC complex activates the kinase. Because of analogy with yeast Cdk8, it has been proposed that the human Cdk8-CyclinC may interact with RNA polymerase, thus influencing the transcription mechanism(s) that lead to cell division. |
