Cdk4, mouse ortholog of human CDK4, encodes the D-cyclin dependent kinase that initiates RB phosphorylation at the restriction point, is directly inhibited by the INK4 proteins p16, p15, p18 and p19 through an allosteric interface that distorts the ATP site, and requires assembly with p21 or p27 plus CAK activation to function. The R24C substitution abolishes INK4 binding and yields an INK4-insensitive kinase, and the homologous human R24C and R24H alleles cause familial melanoma, so an R24C knockin is the appropriate tool for testing whether tumors depend on INK4 restraint or on CDK4/6 inhibitor binding. Null mice are viable but diabetic from beta cell hypoplasia and infertile, making constitutive alleles usable while conditional designs isolate tissue requirement. Cdk6 substitutes broadly, particularly in hematopoietic lineages, so single deletion understates dependency and palbociclib class resistance studies need compound alleles. Select nulls for dependency mapping, R24C knockins for oncogenic drive, and pair conditional alleles with a lineage-matched Cre.
ingenious targeting laboratory offers 2 distinct Cdk4 (CDK4) catalog mouse models, featuring conditional knockout and standard knockout. Researchers can order pre-developed catalog lines or request a custom mouse model, including humanized, knockin, and transgenic variations with verified germline transmission.

Order catalog modelA Cdk4 knockout mouse has the Cdk4 gene permanently inactivated, enabling loss of function studies. A Cdk4 conditional knockout (floxed) mouse carries loxP sites flanking a critical exon of Cdk4, allowing Cre recombinase dependent deletion in specific tissues or at specific timepoints.
