Phosphorylation of Cdc2 on threonine 14 and tyrosine 15 is required to maintain Cdc2 in an inactive state throughout the S and G2 phases of the cell cycle. The human Wee 1 protein, Wee 1 Hu, encodes a tyrosine-specific protein kinase that phosphorylates Cdc2 on tyrosine 15. Myt 1, a member of the Wee 1 family of protein kinases, has been shown to phosphorylate Cdc2 on both threonine 14 and tyrosine 15 in a cyclin-dependent manner. Both Wee 1 Hu and Myt 1 activity are regulated during the cell cycle, suggesting that both proteins play a role in mitotic control. Dephosphorylation of Cdc2 on threonine 14 and tyrosine 15 in late G2 by Cdc25 then activates the Cdc2/cyclin B complex to allow entry into mitosis.

Gene Reference Data

Alternate Names
WEE1A; WEE1hu
Description (Vector)
WEE1 encodes a nuclear protein, which is a tyrosine kinase belonging to the Ser/Thr family of protein kinases. This protein catalyzes the inhibitory tyrosine phosphorylation of CDC2/cyclin B kinase, and appears to coordinate the transition between DNA replication and mitosis by protecting the nucleus from cytoplasmically activated CDC2 kinase.

About Storage Conditions

All our viral products should be kept at -80°C. At this temperature, the virus will remain stable for 6-12 months (and in some cases, up to 2 years). Once thawed, the product can be stored at 4°C for 2-3 weeks without significant loss of biological activity. We recommend aliquoting your vectors into low protein binding tubes upon receipt. This helps avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, as well as prevent loss of virus. To maintain accurate titer, aliquot in at least 20ul per tube.
