Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects cyclin-dependent kinase 12 (gene CDK12) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, ICC/IF, flow cytometry, ELISA and immunoprecipitation. The predicted molecular weight is 164.2 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 200 kDa.
CDK12 is a transcription-associated cyclin-dependent kinase that, with cyclin K, phosphorylates the C-terminal domain of RNA polymerase II to support transcription elongation. It is especially important for full-length expression of long genes involved in DNA repair, so it is studied in genome stability and cancer biology.

Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human HeLa cells, human K562 cells, human Jurkat cells, human HepG2 cells.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 5–20% gradient SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.

Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Conditions in the example images (IHC): heat-mediated antigen retrieval in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0).
Samples with confirmed staining (ICC/IF): A549 cells.
Samples with a confirmed signal (flow cytometry): HepG2 cells.
Samples with a confirmed result (IP): HepG2 cells.
Immunogen
Recombinant human CDK12 fragment (Gln1147–Asn1439), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places cyclin-dependent kinase 12 in the nucleus and nucleus speckle. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Widely expressed. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
