Introduction
CDKN2C is a member of the CDKN2 cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor family. CDKN2C cooperates with CDK4 or CDK6, and inhibits the activation of the CDK kinases, therefore acts as a cell growth regulator which regulates cell cycle G1 progression. CDKN2C suppresses the cell growth and proliferation with a correlated dependency on endogenous retinoblastoma protein RB. Studies in the knockout mice show CDKN2C takes part in regulating spermatogenesis, in addition to suppressing tumorigenesis.
Description
CDKN2C Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 192 amino acids (1-168 and having a molecular mass of 20.7kDa.
CDKN2C is fused to a 24 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
E.coli.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
The CDKN2C solution (0.5mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 200mM NaCl,
