Function
Acts as a negative regulator of entry into mitosis (G2 to M transition) by protecting the nucleus from cytoplasmically activated cyclin B1-complexed CDK1 before the onset of mitosis by mediating phosphorylation of CDK1 on 'Tyr-15'. Specifically phosphorylates and inactivates cyclin B1-complexed CDK1 reaching a maximum during G2 phase and a minimum as cells enter M phase. Phosphorylation of cyclin B1-CDK1 occurs exclusively on 'Tyr-15' and phosphorylation of monomeric CDK1 does not occur. Its activity increases during S and G2 phases and decreases at M phase when it is hyperphosphorylated. A correlated decrease in protein level occurs at M/G1 phase, probably due to its degradation. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Ser/Thr protein kinase family. WEE1 subfamily.
Contains 1 protein kinase domain. -
Post-translational
modificationsPhosphorylated during M and G1 phases. Also autophosphorylated.
Ubiquitinated and degraded at the onset of G2/M phase. -

ab233540 was shown to specifically react with Wee1 in wild-type fission yeast cells as signal was lost in Wee1 knockout cells. Wild-type and Wee1 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab233540 and ab210797 (Rabbit anti-Tubulin loading control) were incubated 1 hour at room temperature at 1/1000 dilution and 1/1000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG, (H+L), Peroxidase conjugated (ab97051) secondary antibody at 1/100,000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging. The blot was developed on a BIO-RAD® ChemiDoc™ MP instrument using the ECL technique.
Wee1 knockout and WT fission yeast whole cell lysates were kindly provided by Dr Quanwen Jin.
