Anti-CDT1

Application

Anti-CDT1 antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 1µg/ml.

Biochem/physiol Actions

CDT1 (chromatin licensing and DNA replication factor 1) gene also referred to as DUP or RIS2 encodes for a protein that is a nuclear localizing replication initiation factor and is expressed only during the G1 and S phases of the cell cycle. CDT1 interacts with CDC6 and stimulates the loading of the mini-chromosome maintenance complex onto chromatin. Hence it forms a pre-replication complex necessary to initiate DNA replication. Further, geminin inhibits CDT1 and may facilitate the inhibition of replication at inappropriate origins. Overexpression of Cdt1 mRNA and geminin may play a crucial role in pathogenesis of acute leukemia (AL).
