Background of CDK5
CDK5, Cyclin-Dependent Kinase5, is also know as PSSALRE. The p34 (CDC2) protein kinase regulates important transitions in the eukaryotic cell cycle. The PSSALRE expression is in all human tissues and cell lines tested. The the CDK5 gene is mapped to chromosome 7q36. Cyclin-dependent kinase-5 is predominantly expressed in neurons where it phosphorylates both high molecular weight neurofilaments and microtubule-associated protein tau. CDK5 is required for proper development of the mammalian central nervous system. To be activated, CDK5 must associate with its regulatory subunit, p35 (CDK5R1). CDK5 can phosphorylate DARPP32 at threonine-75, converting it into an inhibitor of PKA.

Western blot analysis of Cdk5 using anti-Cdk5 antibody (PA1548).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 10% SDS-PAGE gel at 80V (Stacking gel) / 120V (Resolving gel) for 2 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 30 ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: human SH-SY5Y whole cell lysates,
Lane 2: human Jurkat whole cell lysates,
Lane 3: rat brain tissue lysates,
Lane 4: mouse brain tissue lysates.
After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% non-fat milk/TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-Cdk5 antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (PA1548) at 0.5 μg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:5000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an ECL Plus Western Blotting Substrate (Catalog # AR1196-200) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for Cdk5 at approximately 33 kDa. The expected band size for Cdk5 is at 33 kDa.

IF analysis of Cdk5 using anti-Cdk5 antibody (PA1548) and anti-Alpha Tubulin antibody (M03989-3).
Cdk5 was detected in an immunocytochemical section of Hela cells. Enzyme antigen retrieval was performed using IHC enzyme antigen retrieval reagent (AR0022) for 15 mins. The cells were blocked with 10% goat serum. And then incubated with 5 μg/mL rabbit anti-Cdk5 Antibody (PA1548) and mouse anti-Alpha Tubulin antibody (M03989-3) overnight at 4°C. Fluoro488 Conjugated Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG (BA1127) and Cy3 Conjugated Goat Anti-Mouse IgG (BA1031) were used as secondary antibody at 1:500 dilution and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. Visualize using a fluorescence microscope and filter sets appropriate for the label used.

Flow Cytometry analysis of Jurkat cells using anti-Cdk5 antibody (PA1548).
Overlay histogram showing Jurkat cells stained with PA1548 (Blue line). To facilitate intracellular staining, cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with permeabilization buffer. The cells were blocked with 10% normal goat serum. And then incubated with rabbit anti-Cdk5 Antibody (PA1548, 1 μg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 20°C. Fluoro488 conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (BA1127, 5-10 μg/1x106 cells) was used as secondary antibody for 30 minutes at 20°C. Isotype control antibody (Green line) was rabbit IgG (1 μg/1x106) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody (Red line) was used as a blank control.

Question
We are currently using anti-Cdk5 antibody PA1548 for mouse tissue, and we are satisfied with the WB results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says human, mouse, rat. Is it true that the antibody can work on horse tissues as well?

Answer
The anti-Cdk5 antibody (PA1548) has not been tested for cross reactivity specifically with horse tissues, though there is a good chance of cross reactivity. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in horse you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.
