Cyclin b

Manufactured by Santa Cruz Biotechnology
Sourced in United States, United Kingdom

Cyclin B is a key regulatory protein involved in the cell cycle. It plays a crucial role in the transition from the G2 phase to the M phase of the cell cycle, driving the activation of the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) complex. Cyclin B binds to and activates CDK1, which in turn phosphorylates various substrates to initiate and coordinate mitotic events.

Whole cell extracts were lysed in cell lysis buffer (Biosesang, Inc., Seongnam, Korea). Equal quantities of protein (30 µg) were separated on 8–12% SDS-PAGE gels and were subsequently transferred onto a polyvinylidene difluoride membrane (GE Healthcare Life Sciences, Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany). After blocking the membranes with 1% bovine serum albumin and 2% skimmed milk for 1 h, the membranes were incubated at 4°C overnight with the appropriate primary antibody, and were washed three times in phosphate buffered saline with 0.01% Tween-20.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
