Flavopiridol Induces G1 Arrest with Inhibition of Cyclin-dependent Kinase (CDK) 2 and CDK4 in Human Breast Carcinoma Cells

TL;DR: Inhibition of the CDK4 and/or CDK2 kinase activity by Flavopiridol can account for the G1 arrest observed after exposure to FlavopIRidol.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selenium and selenocysteine: roles in cancer, health, and development

TL;DR: By the mid-1990s selenium emerged as one of the most promising cancer chemopreventive agents, but subsequent human clinical trials yielded contradictory results, however, basic research on Selenium continued to move at a rapid pace, elucidating its many roles in health, development, and in cancer prevention and promotion.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel RNA binding protein, SBP2, is required for the translation of mammalian selenoprotein mRNAs

TL;DR: It is established that SBP2 is essential for the co‐translational insertion of Sec into selenoproteins and hypothesize that the binding activity of SBp2 may be involved in preventing termination at the UGA/Sec codon.
Journal ArticleDOI

Potent Inhibition of Cdc2 Kinase Activity by the Flavonoid L86-8275

TL;DR: L86-8275 directly inhibits immunoprecipitated Cdc2 kinase activity from G2/M synchronized MDA-MB-468 breast carcinoma cells and is at least 250-fold more potent than either quercetin or genistein.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decoding apparatus for eukaryotic selenocysteine insertion

TL;DR: expression of the two functional domains of the bacterial elongation factor–SECIS binding protein as two separate proteins in eukaryotes suggests a mechanism for rapid exchange of charged for uncharged selenocysteyl‐tRNA–elongation factor complex, allowing a single SECIS element to serve multiple UGA codons.
