{"product_id":"cst-24283s","title":"CST,  24283S, Total p21 Waf1\/Cip1 Matched Antibody Pair","description":"Matched Antibody Pair for studying p21 Waf1\/Cip1 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 -20ºC. This product will freeze at -20ºC 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\nThe tumor suppressor protein p21 Waf1\/Cip1 acts as an inhibitor of cell cycle progression. It functions in stoichiometric relationships forming heterotrimeric complexes with cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases. In association with CDK2 complexes, it serves to inhibit kinase activity and block progression through G1\/S (1). However, p21 may also enhance assembly and activity in complexes of CDK4 or CDK6 and cyclin D (2). The carboxy-terminal region of p21 is sufficient to bind and inhibit PCNA, a subunit of DNA polymerase, and may coordinate DNA replication with cell cycle progression (3). Upon UV damage or during cell cycle stages when cdc2\/cyclin B or CDK2\/cyclin A are active, p53 is phosphorylated and upregulates p21 transcription via a p53-responsive element (4). Protein levels of p21 are downregulated through ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation (5).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nCAP20; CDK-interacting protein 1; CDK-interaction protein 1; CDKN1; CDKN1A; CDN1A; CIP1; cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 1A; Cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1; cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1A (p21, Cip1); DNA synthesis inhibitor; MDA-6; MDA6; melanoma differentiation associated protein 6; Melanoma differentiation-associated protein 6; p21; p21CIP1; p21Cip1\/Waf1; PIC1; SDI1; WAF1; wild-type p53-activated fragment 1\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800306340009,"sku":"24283S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-24283s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
