Background: p21/WAF1, also known as cip1 and cyclin-dependent kinase interacting protein 1, is a 21kDa protein that belongs to the CDI family of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors. In humans p21/WAF1 is encoded by the CDKN1A gene, the transcription of which is regulated by P53, for example in the case of DNA damage. The p21/WAF1 protein exists within the nucleus as a complex with cyclin, cyclin-dependent kinase (cdk) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). It functions as a potent inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases and plays a critical role in regulating cell growth and the cellular response to DNA damage.Studies show that the amino-terminal domain of p21/WAF1 binds to cyclin/cdk complexes and inhibits their activity, preventing cell cycle progression at the G1/S phase. In addition, p21/WAF1 can also bind through its carboxy-terminal domain to PCNA, inhibiting the activity of PCNA and, as a result, DNA replication.Expression of p21/WAF1 is tightly regulated at the transcriptional level by the tumour suppressor protein p53. It is reported to be upregulated in response to a variety of cellular stress stimuli. Loss of p21 expression has been associated with poor prognosis in several carcinomas including gastric carcinoma, non-small cell lung carcinoma, and thyroid carcinoma.

Source: WA1 is a mouse IgG1 monoclonal antibody derived from the fusion of SP2 mouse myeloma cells with splenocytes from a BALB/c mouse immunized with human p21 protein.

Specificity: The antibody WA1 is directed against human p21/WAF1, but also recognizes this protein in non-human primates . Reports suggest that this antibody recognizes an epitope within the carboxy-terminal region of p21/WAF1.

Formulation: Each vial contains 100 µg 1mg/ml purified monoclonal antibody in PBS containing 0.09% sodium azide.
