Application DetailsImmunohistochemistry (IHC) and Western Blotting (WB). A concentration of 0.25 μg/mL is recommended for WB. Human CDK7 has a predicted length of 346 residues and MW of 39 kDa. A concentration of 0.5 µg/mL is recommended to detect the protein in formalin/acetone fixed frozen tissues. Biosensis recommends optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Scientific BackgroundCyclin-dependent kinase 7 (CDK7) belongs to the cyclin-dependent protein kinase family. CDK7 associates with cyclin H and MAT1 to form the trimeric CDK-activating kinase (CAK) complex. CAK activates cyclin-associated kinases such as CDK4 and CDK6 by threonine phosphorylation.
