Mouse Cdk4 Antibody (C-term) western blot analysis in mouse NIH-3T3 cell line lysates (35ug/lane).This demonstrates the Cdk4 antibody detected the Cdk4 protein (arrow).
Ser/Thr-kinase component of cyclin D-CDK4 (DC) complexes that phosphorylate and inhibit members of the retinoblastoma (RB) protein family including RB1 and regulate the cell-cycle during G(1)/S transition. Phosphorylation of RB1 allows dissociation of the transcription factor E2F from the RB/E2F complexes and the subsequent transcription of E2F target genes which are responsible for the progression through the G(1) phase. Hypophosphorylates RB1 in early G(1) phase. Cyclin D-CDK4 complexes are major integrators of various mitogenenic and antimitogenic signals. Also phosphorylates SMAD3 in a cell-cycle-dependent manner and represses its transcriptional activity. Component of the ternary complex, cyclin D/CDK4/CDKN1B, required for nuclear translocation and activity of the cyclin D-CDK4 complex (By similarity)
Tissue Specificity
This Mouse Cdk4 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 218-246 amino acids from the C-terminal region of Mouse Cdk4.
Cellular Localization
Cytoplasm (By similarity). Nucleus (By similarity). Membrane (By similarity). Note=Cytoplasmic when non- complexed. Forms a cyclin D-CDK4 complex in the cytoplasm as cells progress through G(1) phase. The complex accumulates on the nuclear membrane and enters the nucleus on transition from G(1) to S phase. Also present in nucleoli and heterochromatin lumps Colocalizes with RB1 after release into the nucleus (By similarity)
