In every eukaryote examined, CDKs contain an evolutionary conserved 16 amino acid sequence called PSTAIR (EGVPSTAIREISLLKE) which distinguishes them from other protein kinases. The PSTAIR motif is involved in complex formation with cyclins. The availability of monoclonal antibody reacting specifically with the PSTAIR sequence enables the subcellular detection and localization of the various CDKs and examination of substrate interactions, in a variety of organisms.
Monoclonal Anti-PSTAIR (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the PSTAIR hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mice. Cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDC2/CDK1) belongs to the Ser/Thr protein kinase family. It is located on human chromosome 10q21.
Immunogen
synthetic 16 amino acid oligopeptide containing the PSTAIR sequence conjugated to BSA.
Application
Monoclonal Anti-PSTAIR antibody produced in mouse has been used in:
western blot analysis
enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)
immunoprecipitation
Mouse monoclonal clone PSTAIR anti-PSTAIR antibody may be used for the localization of cyclin-dependent kinases containing the PSTAIR motif using various immunochemical assays including ELISA, immunoblot and immunoprecipitation.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDC2/CDK1) controls various mitotic processes including the reorganization of the cytoskeleton, chromosome segregation, and formation and separation of daughter cells. It is essential for the multiplication of mammalian cell. It participates in tumorigenesis.

For every eukaryotic cell to grow and divide, intricately coordinated action of numerous proteins is required to ensure proper cell-cycle progression. The fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe has been instrumental in elucidating the fundamental principles of cell-cycle control. Mutations in S.
The cyclin B/CDK1 complex is a key regulator of mitotic entry. Using PP242, a specific ATP-competitive inhibitor of mTOR kinase, we provide evidence that the mTOR signalling pathway controls cyclin B mRNA translation following fertilization in Sphaerechinus granularis and Paracentrotus
Histone gene expression is regulated in a cell cycle-dependent manner, with a peak at S phase, which is crucial for cell division and genome integrity. However, the detailed mechanisms by which expression of histone genes are tightly regulated remain largely
