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: Full Length
CDK6 functions as a cell-cycle initiator protein. This protein is coexpressed and copurified with CyclinD1. They are critical regulators of cell cycle progression. The prototype member of this family, p34cdc2, and a related protein cdk2, function late in the cycle while cdk4 and cdk6 are critically involved in G1 to S progression. CDK6 is essential for cell proliferation within the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus and the cuventricular zone of the lateral ventricles. Mutations in the gene results in microcephaly 12, primary, autosomal recessive (MCPH12).
