Cdk 5 is required for proper development of the mammalian central nervous system and is predominantly expressed in neurons. Neuronal Cdk5 can be activated by two accessory proteins designated p35nck5a and p39nck5ai, which is also known as p39. The human p39 gene maps to chromosome 2q35 and encodes a 367-amino acid, 39 kDa protein. p35 and p39 both share limited similarity to cyclins and may define a distinct family of cyclin-dependent kinase activating proteins. During embryonic rat brain development, the expression pattern of p39 appears to have an inverse relationship to that of Cdk5 and p35, suggesting that these proteins may have region-specific and developmental stage-specific functions in rat brain. p39 can localize to lamellipodial and fillopodial structures of cells and in growth cones of neurons. In addition, p39 can colocalize with actin, suggesting that p39 plays a role in regulating actin cytoskeletal dynamics in cells.
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE).
