human ... CDK8(1024)

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human CDK8

Application

Anti-CDK8 antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 1.25 μg/ml.

Biochem/physiol Actions

CDK8 is a regulator of transcription in a multisubunit complex with TFIIH and TEF-β. It exerts positive and negative effects on transcription and is involved signaling that controls nutrient sensing and cell differentiation. CDK8 phosphorylates the regulatory serine residue of STAT1 and mediates JAK-STAT1 signaling.

Sequence

Synthetic peptide located within the following region: GLIMTSDYQRSNPHAAYPNPGPSTSQPQSSMGYSATSQQPPQYSHQTHRY

Physical form

Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.

JAK-STAT, 2(3), e24275-e24275 (2013-09-27)
Whereas cytokine-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of STAT (signal transducer and activator of transcription) proteins by JAK kinases has been well studied, much less is known about STAT-specific serine kinases and their signal-dependent regulation. The paper by Joanna Bancerek and colleagues published

Three cyclin dependent kinases, Cdk7, Cdk8 and Cdk9 are intimately connected with the processes of RNA polymerase II dependent transcription initiation and elongation in eukaryotic cells. Each of these kinases is part of a larger multisubunit complex, TFIIH, Mediator and
