{"product_id":"cst-19013s","title":"CST,  19013S, p16 INK4A Matched Antibody Pair","description":"Matched Antibody Pair for studying INK4A, p16 in the research area.\n\n\u003cb\u003eProduct Usage Information\u003c\/b\u003e\nMatched Antibody Pairs consist of capture and detection antibodies that bind to non-overlapping epitopes. For specific identification of the capture and detection antibodies in this pair, please refer to the data figure caption. Optimal dilutions\/concentrations should be determined by the end user.\n\u003cb\u003eFormulation\u003c\/b\u003e\nSupplied in 1X PBS (10 mM Na 2 HPO 4 , 3 mM KCl, 2 mM KH 2 PO 4 , and 140 mM NaCl (pH 7.8)). BSA and Azide Free.\n\u003cb\u003eStorage\u003c\/b\u003e\nStore at -20ÂºC. This product will freeze at -20ÂºC so it is recommended to aliquot into single-use vials to avoid multiple freeze\/thaw cycles . A slight precipitate may be present and can be dissolved by gently vortexing. This will not interfere with antibody performance.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nMembers of the INK4 family of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors include p16 INK4A, p15 INK4B, p18 INK4C, and p19 INK4D. The INK4 family members inhibit cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6 (CDK4 and CDK6), causing cell cycle arrest in G1 phase. The INK4A-ARF-INK4B locus on chromosome 9p21, frequently lost in human cancer, encodes the INK4 family members p16 INK5A and p15 INK4B, as well as the unrelated protein, ARF (1). p16 INK4A expression, typically repressed in the absence of stress, is thought to drive cells into senescence, and p16 INK4A expression is a commonly used marker of senescent cells (2,3). p16 INK4A protein expression is often altered in human cancer, and high expression is currently used as a predictive biomarker in cervical cancer (3-5).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nalternative reading frame; ARF; CD2A1; CDK4 inhibitor p16-INK4; CDK4I; CDKN2; CDKN2A; CDN2A; cell cycle negative regulator beta; CMM2; cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 2A; Cyclin-dependent kinase 4 inhibitor A; Cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A; cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A (melanoma, p16, inhibits CDK4); cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A, isoform 4; Cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A, isoforms 1\/2\/3; cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p16; INK4; INK4a; MLM; MTS-1; MTS1; Multiple tumor suppressor 1; p14; p14ARF; p16; p16-INK4; p16-INK4a; p16INK4; p16INK4A; p19; p19Arf; TP16\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800304898217,"sku":"19013S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-19013s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
