Cdk5 sinks into ALS

Trends in Neurosciences, 2002
Recent research points to an involvement of deregulated cdk5 activity in the pathogenesis of mutant SOD1-mediated disease. In addition, inhibition of this activity might promote motor neuron survival. These observations have opened the door to further research into the role of cdk5 in ALS and other neurodegenerative diseases.

MAP1B phosphorylation is differentially regulated by Cdk5/p35, Cdk5/p25, and JNK

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2005
Mode I phosphorylated MAP1B is observed in developing and pathogenic brains. Although Cdk5 has been believed to phosphorylate MAP1B in the developing cerebral cortex, we show that a Cdk5 inhibitor does not suppress mode I phosphorylation of MAP1B in primary and slice cultures, while a JNK inhibitor does.

Peptides derived from Cdk5 activator p35, specifically inhibit deregulated activity of Cdk5

Biotechnology Journal, 2007
AbstractNormal Cdk5 activity, conferred mainly by association with its primary activator p35, is critical for normal function of the cell and must be tightly regulated. During neurotoxicity, p35 is cleaved to form p25, which becomes a potent and mislocalized hyperactivator of Cdk5, resulting in a deregulation of Cdk5 activity.

Cdk5 in Presynapses

2008
Recent studies have explored the indispensable roles of Cdk5 in presynapse. Presynapse is the structure in which neurotransmitter-containing synaptic vesicles are fused to the synaptic membrane and recycled to internal compartments via exocytosis and endocytosis, respectively.

Expression of Cdk5, p35, and Cdk5-associated kinase activity in the developing rat lens

Developmental Genetics, 1997
We have investigated the expression of Cdk5 and its regulatory subunit, p35, in the developing rat lens from embryonic day 16 (E16) to postnatal day 8 (P8). Reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction (RT/PCR) detected Cdk5 and p35 mRNA expression in lens epithelial cells and in differentiating lens fibers throughout this developmental period ...

When Good Cdk5 Turns Bad

Science of Aging Knowledge Environment, 2006
The cyclin-dependent kinase-5 (Cdk5) is critical to normal mammalian development and has been implicated in synaptic plasticity, learning, and memory in the adult brain. But Cdk-5 activity has also been linked to neurodegenerative diseases. Could a single protein have opposing effects?

CDK5 interacts with STK3

2023
The Hippo-YAP/TAZ pathway is the most prevalent evolutionary conserved pathway from Drosophila to mammals and plays a key role in controlling organ size, cell growth, self-renewal, and tissue homeostasis. Hippo pathway consists of MST/LATS kinase module and YAP/TAZ-TEAD transcription module and is generally regulated by transcriptional activity of YAP ...

Cdk5: A main culprit in neurodegeneration

International Journal of Neuroscience, 2019
Objectives: Neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) such as Alzheimer Diseases (AD), Parkinson Diseases (PD) are a huge public health problem. The elucidation of their pathophysiological mechanism is one of our greatest challenges. Hyperactive immune system contributes to the pathophysiology of neurological disorders.

CDK5–cyclin B1 regulates mitotic fidelity

Nature
CDK1 has been known to be the sole cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) partner of cyclin B1 to drive mitotic progression1. Here we demonstrate that CDK5 is active during mitosis and is necessary for maintaining mitotic fidelity. CDK5 is an atypical CDK owing to its high expression in post-mitotic neurons and activation by non-cyclin proteins p35 and p392 ...

Cdk5 on the brain.

Cell growth & differentiation : the molecular biology journal of the American Association for Cancer Research, 2001
Mammalian brains are highly compartmentalized into groups of functionally specialized neurons. Cell migration and neurite outgrowth must be tightly orchestrated to achieve this level of organization. A small serine/threonine kinase that shows homology to cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks) has emerged as an important regulator of neuronal migration.
