Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-Cdk4 (phospho T172) antibody [9HCLC] (AB277788)
For immunofluorescence analysis, T98G cells were fixed and permeabilized for detection of endogenous CDK4 (pT172) using Anti- CDK4 (pT172) Recombinant Rabbit Multiclonal Antibody (ab277788, 2 μg/mL) and labeled with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG (H+L) Superclonal™ Secondary Antibody, Alexa Fluor® 488 conjugate (1/2000). Nuclei (blue) were stained using SlowFade® Gold Antifade Mountant with DAPI, and Alexa Fluor® 555 Rhodamine Phalloidin (1/300) was used for cytoskeletal F-actin (red) staining. Detection and localization of CDK4 pT172 (green) in the nucleus can be clearly observed in cell cycle synchronised cells (serum starved overnight and serum released for 10 hours) as compared to untreated cells. Antibody specificity was demonstrated by competition with the CDK4 pT172 peptide, which results in loss of signal. No competition was observed with the non-phospho peptide. The images were captured at 60X magnification.

What are recombinant multiclonals?
Recombinant multiclonals are a mixture of recombinant antibodies co-expressed from a library of heavy and light chains. They offer several advantages including:
- - The sensitivity of polyclonal antibodies by recognising multiple epitopes
- - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
- - Improved sensitivity and specificity
- - Long-term security of supply
- - Animal-free batch production

Biological function summary
Cdk4 plays a fundamental role in cell cycle regulation by forming a complex with D-type cyclins. Together they phosphorylate the retinoblastoma protein (Rb) resulting in the release of E2F transcription factors which promote the expression of genes necessary for DNA replication. The Cdk4/cyclin D complex regulates the cell's commitment to enter S phase and continue cell division. This regulation is key for normal cell proliferation and tissue homeostasis. Cdk4 activity is strictly controlled by INK4 family members acting as inhibitors and adding an extra regulation layer.
Pathways
Cdk4 is an integral part of important signaling pathways like the cell cycle and PI3K/AKT pathways. In the cell cycle pathway Cdk4 relays signals downstream that drive the transition from the G1 to S phase through its interaction with cyclin D and Rb. In the PI3K/AKT pathway signaling can influence cyclin D expression indirectly affecting Cdk4 activity. Proteins such as Cdk6 closely relate to Cdk4 and often compensate or partner with Cdk4 in these pathways to maintain proper cell cycle progression.
