Flow Cytometry - Anti-Cdc20 antibody [BA8] (AB18217)
Overlay histogram showing LoVo cells stained with ab18217 (red line). The cells were fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab18217, 1μg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG2a [ICIGG2A] (ab91361, 1μg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed.

Biological function summary
Cdc20 acts as an activator of the APC/C complex regulating the transition from metaphase to anaphase during cell division. This transition depends on the degradation of securin and cyclins ensuring correct chromosome separation and cell cycle progression. By forming a complex with APC/C Cdc20 functions to target proteins for destruction modulating cell division dynamically. Its activity ensures that chromosomes are correctly aligned and segregated preventing errors during cell division that may lead to genomic instability.
Pathways
Cdc20 integrates itself into the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) and the mitotic exit network (MEN). These pathways monitor chromosome alignment and ensure that cells do not proceed to anaphase until all chromosomes are properly attached to the spindle apparatus. SAC utilizes Cdc20 to regulate its inhibitory role until chromosome alignment is confirmed after which Cdc20 activates APC/C to drive anaphase onset. Moreover proteins such as BubR1 interact with Cdc20 within the SAC to inhibit premature activation of APC/C while conditions are not optimal.
