The CDK6/CyclinD3 Kinase Assay Kit is designed to measure CDK6/CyclinD3 kinase activity for screening and profiling applications using Kinase-Glo® MAX as a detection reagent.
The assay kit comes in a convenient 96-well format, with enough purified recombinant CDK6/CyclinD3 kinase, kinase substrate, ATP, and kinase assay buffer for 100 enzyme reactions.

Background
CDK6 is a serine/threonine protein kinase involved in cell cycle progression and in cellular differentiation. The CDK6/Cyclin D3 complex phosphorylate RB1 to release the transcription factor E2F and drive the transition from G1 to S-phase of the cell cycle. This complex regulates cell proliferation in many cell types and has been validated as a cancer therapeutic target. Palbociclib, a CDK4/CDK6 inhibitor, has shown therapeutic benefit in a small number of patients and is in clinical use for the treatment of ER+/HER2- breast cancer, with more clinical trials ongoing.
Storage/Stability
This assay kit will perform optimally for up to 6 months from date of receipt when the materials are stored as directed.
Applications
Study enzyme kinetics and screen small molecular inhibitors for drug discovery and high throughput (HTS) applications.
The final concentration of DMSO in the assay should not exceed 1%.
Warnings
Avoid freeze/thaw cycles
Disclaimers and Limitations
BPS Bioscience assay kits are validated using the listed components according to our specific protocol. Any deviations to kit components or protocols, such as using different proteins, cell/tissue lysates, or buffers (including using the same component from other commercial sources) will void any warranties on the performance of the assay kit and is not recommended.
End-users should immediately report any issues to [email protected] upon receipt of the kit, such as missing components, damaged vials, no dry ice, etc.
