Recombinant Human CDK5 protein, GST-tagged

• Cat.No.: CDK5-1H
• Product Overview: Recombinant full-length human CDK5 and p25 were co-expressed by baculovirus in Sf9 insect cells using an N-terminal GST tag on both proteins.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: Sf9 Cells
• Tag: GST
• Description: CDK5 is a member of the Cyclin-Dependent Kinase family that is most abundant in the mammalian brain. Active form of CDK5, which has also been called neuronal cdc2-like kinase, is a heterodimer of CDK5 and a 25 kDa protein which is derived proteolytically from a 35 kDa brain and neuron-specific protein and is essential for the kinase activity of CDK5. CDK5 has emerged as a crucial regulator of neuronal migration in the developing central nervous system. CDK5 phosphorylates a diverse list of substrates, implicating it in the regulation of a range of cellular processes - from adhesion and motility, to synaptic plasticity and drug addiction.
• Form: Recombinant protein stored in 50mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 150mM NaCl, 10mM glutathione, 0.1mM EDTA, 0.25mMDTT, O.1 mM PMSF, 25% glycerol.
• Molecular Mass: ~59 kDa and p25 ~49 kDa
