Product Specifications

Immunogen

Recombinant full-length human p21/CIP1/CDKN1A protein (CIP1/823); Human recombinant p21 protein (DCS-60.2) (Uniprot: P38936)

Reactivity Notes

Localization

Nuclear

Specificity

This monoclonal antibody recognizes a 21kDa protein, identified as the p21WAF1 tumor suppressor protein. This monoclonal antibody is highly specific to p21 and shows no cross-reaction with other closely related mitotic inhibitors. p21WAF1 is a specific inhibitor of cdks and a tumor suppressor involved in the pathogenesis of a variety of malignancies. The expression of this gene acts as an inhibitor of the cell cycle during G1 phase and is tightly controlled by the tumor suppressor protein p53. Its expression is induced by the wild type, but not mutant, p53 suppressor protein. Normal cells generally display a rather intense nuclear p21 expression. Loss of p21 expression has been reported in many carcinomas (gastric carcinoma, non-small cell lung carcinoma, thyroid carcinoma).

Monoclonal

Host

Mouse

Isotype

IgG2a Kappa

Theoretical MW

21 kDa.
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Description

Background: p21/CIP1/CDKN1A

Cell cycle progression is regulated by cyclins and their cognate Cdks. p21 (WAF1/CIP1) inhibits the activity of each member of the cyclin/Cdk family, and over expression of this protein inhibits the proliferation of mammalian cells. The expression of p21 is inducible by a wide range of stress stimuli. p21 is tightly regulated at the transcriptional level by p53, and probably serves as the effector of p53 cell cycle control.
