Cyclin activation of p34cdc2

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
The concerted transition into mitosis involves both a reduction in the rate of p34cdc2 phosphorylation on tyrosine and an increase in its rate of dephosphorylation.

The p21 Cdk-interacting protein Cip1 is a potent inhibitor of G1 cyclin-dependent kinases

TL;DR: In this article, an improved two-hybrid system was employed to isolate human genes encoding Cdk-interacting proteins (Cips) and found that CIP1 is a potent, tight-binding inhibitor of Cdks and can inhibit the phosphorylation of Rb by cyclin A-Cdk2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Principles of CDK regulation

TL;DR: The activity of cyclin-dependent kinases is controlled by four highly conserved biochemical mechanisms, forming a web of regulatory pathways unmatched in its elegance and intricacy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cyclin is degraded by the ubiquitin pathway

TL;DR: Cyclin degradation is the key step governing exit from mitosis and progress into the next cell cycle, and anaphase may be triggered by the recognition of cyclin by the ubiquitin-conjugating system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Colony-stimulating factor 1 regulates novel cyclins during the G1 phase of the cell cycle

TL;DR: The timing of p36CYL expression, its rapid turnover in the absence of CSF-1, and its phosphorylation and transient binding to a cdc2-related polypeptide suggest that CYL genes may function during S phase commitment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Self-perpetuating states in signal transduction: positive feedback, double-negative feedback and bistability.

TL;DR: The basic properties of bistable circuits, the requirements for construction of a satisfactorybistable switch, and the recent progress towards constructing and analysing bistables signaling systems are reviewed.

Single-step purification of polypeptides expressed in Escherichia coli as fusions with glutathione S-transferase.

TL;DR: Plasmid expression vectors have been constructed that direct the synthesis of foreign polypeptides in Escherichia coli as fusions with the C terminus of Sj26, a 26-kDa glutathione S-transferase (GST; EC 2.5.1.18) encoded by the parasitic helminth Schistosoma japonicum.

Universal control mechanism regulating onset of M-phase

TL;DR: The onset of M-phase is regulated by a mechanism common to all eukaryotic cells and requires p34cdc2 dephosphorylation and association with cyclin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cyclin: A protein specified by maternal mRNA in sea urchin eggs that is destroyed at each cleavage division

TL;DR: Eggs of the sea urchin Lytechinus pictus and oocytes of the surf clam Spisula solidissima also contain proteins that only start to be made after fertilization and are destroyed at certain points in the cell division cycle, and it is proposed to call these proteins the cyclins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cyclin synthesis drives the early embryonic cell cycle.

TL;DR: In this paper, the addition of exogenous cyclin mRNA is sufficient to produce multiple cell cycles and the newly synthesized cyclin protein accumulates during each interphase and is degraded at the end of each mitosis.

Tyrosine phosphorylation of the fission yeast cdc2 + protein kinase regulates entry into mitosis

TL;DR: The cdc2+ protein kinase (pp34) is found to be phosphorylated on tyrosine as well as serine and threonine residues in exponentially growing Schizosaccharomyces pombe, establishing that tyrosines phosphorylation/dephosphorylation directly regulates pp34 function.
