Cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (cdks) are evolutionarily conserved proteins that are essential for cell-cycle control in eukaryotes.
Cyclins contain a conserved amino acid sequence motif, the cyclin box, which allows their binding to cdks to form active complexes that
regulate the progression of the cell cycle. The synthesis and degradation of cyclins is tightly controlled in a cell cycle specific manner. Several
classes of cyclins (A-E) have been described. Cyclins have been placed into functional groups as follows: Group 1 (cyclins A, B, D1, D2, D3,
E and F) functions primarily in cell cycle reguation; Group 2 (cyclins C and H) also plays a role in transcriptional regulation; Group 3 (cyclins
G1, G2 and I) may play a role distinct from other cyclins. Specific substrates for cyclin-cdk complexes include nuclear lamins, histones,
oncogenes (c-src, c-abl, SV40 large-T Ag), tumor suppressor genes (Rb and p53), and others. The D-type cyclins are involved in regulating
the passage of mammalian cells through G1. The reduced molecular weights of cyclin D1 is ~36 kD.
G124-326 recognizes human cyclin D1 and cross-reacts with the mouse homolog (Cyl1) of human cyclin D1. It does not cross-react with
human cyclins D2 and D3. Recombinant full-length human cyclin D1 was used as immunogen. The antibody was originally evaluated by
ELISA, western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry of frozen and paraffin-embedded tissue sections.
