Selective anticancer activity of a hexapeptide with sequence homology to a non-kinase domain of Cyclin Dependent Kinase 4 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: cyclin-dependent kinases 2, 4 and 6 (Cdk2, Cdk4, Cdk6) are closely structurally homologous proteins which are classically understood to control the transition from the G1 to the S-phases of the cell cycle by combining with their appropriate ...

High throughput screens yield small molecule inhibitors of Leishmania CRK3:CYC6 cyclin-dependent kinase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
<p><b>Background:</b> <i>Leishmania</i> species are parasitic protozoa that have a tightly controlled cell cycle, regulated by cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs).

Identification of calpain cleavage sites in the G1 cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p19(INK4d) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Calpains are a large family of Ca2+-dependent cysteine proteases that are ubiquitously distributed across most cell types and vertebrate species. Calpains play a role in cell differentiation, apoptosis, cytoskeletal remodeling, signal transduction and ...

CAPTURE of the Human U2 snRNA Genes Expands the Repertoire of Associated Factors

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
In order to identify factors involved in transcription of human snRNA genes and 3′ end processing of the transcripts, we have carried out CRISPR affinity purification in situ of regulatory elements (CAPTURE), which is deadCas9-mediated pull-down, of the ...

CDK-dependent nuclear localization of B-Cyclin Clb1 promotes FEAR activation during meiosis I in budding yeast [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) are master regulators of the cell cycle in eukaryotes. CDK activity is regulated by the presence, post-translational modification and spatial localization of its regulatory subunit cyclin.

Phosphorylation of the Human DNA Glycosylase NEIL2 Is Affected by Oxidative Stress and Modulates Its Activity

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
The DNA glycosylase NEIL2 plays a central role in maintaining genome integrity, in particular during oxidative stress, by recognizing oxidized base lesions and initiating repair of these via the base excision repair (BER) pathway.

Maternal sevoflurane exposure induces neurotoxicity in offspring rats via the CB1R/CDK5/p-tau pathway

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Sevoflurane is widely used for maternal anesthesia during pregnancy. Sevoflurane exposure of rats at mid-gestation can cause abnormal development of the central nervous system in their offspring.

Trisubstituted pyrazolopyrimidines as novel angiogenesis inhibitors. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Current inhibitors of angiogenesis comprise either therapeutic antibodies (e.g. bevacicumab binding to VEGF-A) or small molecular inhibitors of receptor tyrosin kinases like e.g. sunitinib, which inhibits PDGFR and VEGFR.

Activation of Cyclin-Dependent Kinase 5 Mediates Orofacial Mechanical Hyperalgesia

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2013
Background Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5) is a unique member of the serine/threonine kinase family. This kinase plays an important role in neuronal development, and deregulation of its activity leads to neurodegenerative disorders.

Role of cyclin-dependent kinase 5 in psychosis and the modulatory effects of cannabinoids

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2023
Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) is a serine/threonine kinase that has emerged as a key regulator of neurotransmission in complex cognitive processes. Its expression is altered in treated schizophrenia patients, and cannabinoids modulate CDK5 levels in ...
