Recombinant Human CDK6 Protein (Met1-Ala326), His tagged

• Cat.No.: CDK6-1074H
• Product Overview: Recombinant human CDK6 (Met1-Ala326) fused with His tag was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Description: Serine/threonine-protein kinase involved in the control of the cell cycle and differentiation; promotes G1/S transition. Phosphorylates pRB/RB1 and NPM1. Interacts with D-type G1 cyclins during interphase at G1 to form a pRB/RB1 kinase and controls the entrance into the cell cycle. Involved in initiation and maintenance of cell cycle exit during cell differentiation; prevents cell proliferation and regulates negatively cell differentiation, but is required for the proliferation of specific cell types (e.g. erythroid and hematopoietic cells). Essential for cell proliferation within the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus and the subventricular zone of the lateral ventricles. Required during thymocyte development. Promotes the production of newborn neurons, probably by modulating G1 length. Promotes, at least in astrocytes, changes in patterns of gene expression, changes in the actin cytoskeleton including loss of stress fibers, and enhanced motility during cell differentiation. Prevents myeloid differentiation by interfering with RUNX1 and reducing its transcription transactivation activity, but promotes proliferation of normal myeloid progenitors. Delays senescence. Promotes the proliferation of beta-cells in pancreatic islets of Langerhans. May play a role in the centrosome organization during the cell cycle phases.

Q&As

How is the expression level of CDK6 regulated?

The expression level of CDK6 is regulated by a variety of factors, including transcription factors, epigenetic modifications, and signal transduction pathways. These factors can affect the transcription and translation processes of the CDK6 gene, thereby regulating its expression level in cells.

What are the challenges in the development of CDK6 inhibitors?

There are several challenges in the development of CDK6 inhibitors, including issues such as inhibitor selectivity, drug resistance, and drug delivery. In addition, since CDK6 also has a certain function in normal cells, the side effects of inhibitors are also a factor to consider.

Does CDK6 have a role in stem cell biology?

It plays an important role in stem cell biology. It is involved in the process of self-renewal and differentiation of stem cells, as well as in determining the fate of stem cells. By regulating the activity of CDK6, it is possible to influence the proliferation and fate selection of stem cells.

What are the clinical applications of CDK6 inhibitors?

CDK6 inhibitors have been developed as potential anti-cancer drugs and have shown some efficacy in clinical trials. They block the progression of the cell cycle by inhibiting the activity of CDK6, thereby inhibiting the proliferation of cancer cells.

How is CDK6 activity regulated?

The activity of CDK6 is regulated at multiple levels, including binding to other cyclins and inhibitors, phosphorylation and dephosphorylation events, and transcriptional and post-translational modifications.

Does CDK6 function differently in different types of cancer?

The role of CDK6 in different types of cancer may vary. It may act as a promoter in some cancers and as a suppressant in others. This difference can be related to factors such as the type, stage, and genetic background of the cancer.
