Cdk1/cdc2 monoclonal antibody (5F6)

The cell division cycle (cdc) group of proteins consists of many protein classes, including cyclin dependent kinases (Cdks), phosphoprotein phosphatases, mitogen activated kinases, small GTPases, and cyclins. These proteins play a central role in regulating progression through the cell cycle through the formation and/or modification of key substrates. Cdc42 belongs to the Rho-family of GTPases, and promotes actin polymerization to form filopodia. Cdc25A is a dual-specificity phosphatase that acts on phosphorylated threonine and tyrosine residues of Cdks, leading to binding and activation of their partner cyclins.
