Modulation of β-Catenin Phosphorylation/Degradation by Cyclin-dependent Kinase 2 [PDF]
beta-Catenin functions as a downstream component of the Wnt/Wingless signal transduction pathway, and inappropriate control of cytosolic beta-catenin is a crucial step in the genesis of several human cancers. Here we demonstrate that cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) in association with cyclin A or cyclin E directly binds to beta-catenin. In vivo and in

Proteomic Landscape of Tissue-Specific Cyclin E Functions in Vivo. [PDF]
E-type cyclins (cyclins E1 and E2) are components of the cell cycle machinery that has been conserved from yeast to humans. The major function of E-type cyclins is to drive cell division.

Direct Activation of Cyclin-Dependent Kinase 2 by Human Papillomavirus E7 [PDF]
ABSTRACT Addition of human papillomavirus (HPV) E7 CDK2/cyclin A or CDK2/cyclin E, purified from either insect cells or bacteria, dramatically upregulates histone H1 kinase activity. Activation is substrate specific, with a smaller effect noted for retinoblastoma protein (Rb). The CDK2 stimulatory activity is equivalent in high-risk (HPV type

Genistein Inhibits Rat Aortic Smooth Muscle Cell Proliferation Through the Induction of p27kip1
Diet is one of the most important factors that influence the risks for cardiovascular diseases. Genistein, an isoflavone found in soy, may benefit the cardiovascular system. Here, we investigated the effect of genistein on platelet-derived growth factor (

Phosphorylation of cyclin-dependent kinase 2 peptides enhances metal binding [PDF]
The cyclin-dependent kinase CDK2 is inactivated by phosphorylation on either of the two neighbouring residues Thr14 or Tyr15. The effect of phosphorylation on metal ion binding has been investigated with peptides incorporating residues 6-20 of CDK2. The stoichiometry of Ca(2+) binding increased from 1 in the un- and singly-phosphorylated peptides to 2 ...

Background The mechanisms underlying protein function and associated conformational change are dominated by a series of local entropy fluctuations affecting the global structure yet are mediated by only a few key residues.

Nuclear Targeting of 6-Phosphofructo-2-kinase (PFKFB3) Increases Proliferation via Cyclin-dependent Kinases [PDF]
The regulation of metabolism and growth must be tightly coupled to guarantee the efficient use of energy and anabolic substrates throughout the cell cycle. Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (Fru-2,6-BP) is an allosteric activator of 6-phosphofructo-1-kinase (PFK-1), a rate-limiting enzyme and essential control point in glycolysis.
