Anti-Cdc20

0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. The cell-division cycle protein 20, also known as p55CDC, is an essential regulator of cell division that is encoded by the CDC20 gene in humans. The chromosomal assignment of human CDC20 is 1p34.2. CDC20 is a component of the mammalian cell cycle mechanism. CDC20 appears to act as a regulatory protein interacting with many other proteins at multiple points in the cell cycle. This gene's most important function is to activate the anaphase promoting complex (APC), a large 11-13 subunit complex that initiates chromatid separation and entrance into anaphase. Protein function: Required for full ubiquitin ligase activity of the anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) and may confer substrate specificity upon the complex. Is regulated by MAD2L1: in metaphase the MAD2L1-CDC20-APC/C ternary complex is inactive and in anaphase the CDC20-APC/C binary complex is active in degrading substrates. The CDC20-APC/C complex positively regulates the formation of synaptic vesicle clustering at active zone to the presynaptic membrane in postmitotic neurons. CDC20-APC/C-induced degradation of NEUROD2 induces presynaptic differentiation. [The UniProt Consortium]
