Product Overview
Clone 6D5B5 is a mouse monoclonal antibody that recognizes cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (gene CDK2) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot and IHC. The predicted molecular weight is 33.9 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 30 kDa.
CDK2 is a cyclin-dependent kinase that pairs with cyclin E and cyclin A to drive the G1-to-S transition and DNA replication. It phosphorylates targets such as RB1 and helps trigger centrosome duplication; although somatic cells can often compensate for its loss, it is essential for meiosis and is widely studied in cell cycle research.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.25–0.5 µg/mL (Human, Mouse, Rat) |
|---|---|
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 2–5 µg/mL (Human, Mouse, Rat) |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human Jurkat cells, human HepG2 cells, human U2OS cells, rat heart tissue, rat L6 cells, mouse heart tissue, mouse C2C12 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 1:10000, ECL detection.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): human laryngeal squamous cells carcinomas tissue, human liver cancer tissue, human renal clear cells carcinoma tissue, human serous adenocarcinoma of ovary tissue, mouse colon tissue, rat colon tissue.
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).
Immunogen
Recombinant human Cdk2 fragment (Glu81–Leu298), expressed in E. coli. Sequence identity with the rat ortholog: 98.6%.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places cyclin-dependent kinase 2 in the nucleus, cytoplasm and endosome. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
