This recombinant protein control fragment may be used for blocking experiments with the corresponding antibody, PA5-60092. In IHC/ICC and WB experiments, we recommend a 100x molar excess of the protein fragment control based on the concentration and the molecular weight. Pre-incubate the antibody-protein control fragment mixture for 30 min at room temperature.
Thymidylate kinase (DTYMK) catalyzes the phosphorylation of dTMP to form dTDP in the dTTP synthesis pathway for DNA synthesis. DTYMK is essential for DNA synthesis and is an important intermediate enzyme in the pathway of many pyrimidine analog drugs, including 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), the chemotherapeutic drug of choice for several solid tumors. The human DTYMK gene was isolated via functional complementation of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell cycle mutant, cdc8. DTYMK mRNA levels and enzyme activities are regulated at the level of cell cycle and cell growth pathways.
