Anti-CDK6 Antibody, clone 2J3 ZooMAb^® Rabbit Monoclonal

Cyclin-dependent kinase 6 (UniProt: Q00534; also known as EC:2.7.11.22, Cell division protein kinase 6, Cdk6, Serine/threonine-protein kinase PLSTIRE) is encoded by the CDK6 (also known as CDKN6) gene (Gene ID: 1021) in human. CDK6 is a ubiquitously expressed serine/threonine-protein kinase that is involved in the control of the cell cycle and differentiation. Its kinase domain is localized to amino acids 13-300 and its kinase activity is observed only in the nucleus. It associates with D-type cyclins (D1, D2 and D3), and the resulting complexes enable the cell to pass from the G1 phase to the S phase. Its binding to cyclin promotes its activation by phosphorylation at threonine 177. CDK6 is considered as a versatile player in transcriptional regulation and differentiation, participating in the integration of signaling networks and controlling changes in gene expression and epigenetic status, which contribute to cell fate determination. Over-expression of CDK6 has been reported in some leukemias and malignancies, including sarcoma, glioma, breast tumors, lymphoma, and melanoma. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
