For maximum recovery please spin prior to use. Unless noted below, aliquots of the 5 µg, 10 µg and 20 µg sizes of kinase are not recommended as materials can be used in original packaging until exhausted. For larger sizes, the number of freeze/thaws may be reduced by preparing aliquots, aliquots below 20 µL are not recommended. Please never store a kinase diluted. If properly stored at -80C, this product is guaranteed for 6 months from date of purchase.

Protein Form: Recombinant, Active, Catalytic
CDK18/cyclin Y serine/threonine kinase or cyclin-dependent kinase 18 belongs to the cdc2/cdkx subfamily of kinases. CDK18/cyclin Y is thought to play a role in terminally differentiated neurons and it contains an N-terminal extension relative to CDC2. CDK18/cyclin Y is expressed in a variety of human cell lines and tissues. Elevation in the protein levels of CDK18/cyclin Y in the temporal cortex of Alzheimer's disease relative to control brains has been observed. It is proposed that CDK18/cyclin Y is a paired helical filaments-associated kinase that modulates tau phosphorylation.
