products description :
Ki-67 is a marker of cell proliferation and is detected in cells that are in G1-, S-, G2-, and M-phase of the
cell cycle and absent in cells in GO phase (1). Ki-67 is used as a marker for cell proliferation of solid
tumors and some hematological malignancies. It is associated with ribosomal RNA transcription, and
inactivation of antigen Ki-67 leads to inhibition of ribosomal RNA synthesis. Ki-67 expression is used as a
marker for determining the fraction of proliferating cells within a given population of tumor cells. It is also
important for distinguishing between malignant and benign peripheral nerve sheath tumors. MBS541939 is used
as prognostic/predictive markers in breast cancer and other malignant diseases, so high levels of MBS541939
are associated with poorer breast cancer survival (2). Ki-67 protein is a new member of the family of
MPM-2 reactive phospho-proteins, which includes both structural and functional proteins that are
necessary for the control and timing of mitosis. Phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of the Ki-67
protein are controlled by key regulatory structures of the cell cycle and occur at two hallmark events within
the cell cycle: the breakdown and the reorganization of the nucleus during mitosis (3). The human Ki-67
gene maps to chromosome 1 Oq26.2 and encodes a 3256 amino acid protein.<br.
The Ki-67 selective antibodies were generated against conserved sequences that are unique to specific
Ki-67 protein. The selective antibodies are affinity purified against immobilized antigen based affinity
chromatography which yielded epitope-specific antibodies. Western blot positive control (MBS542894) and
antigeniC blocking peptides (MBS543898) for Ki67 are available.
