p25/Cdk5-mediated retinoblastoma phosphorylation is an early event in neuronal cell death [PDF]
In large models of neuronal cell death, there is a tight correlation between Cdk5 deregulation and cell-cycle dysfunction. However, pathways that link Cdk5 to the cell cycle during neuronal death are still unclear.

A uniform procedure for the purification of CDK7/CycH/MAT1, CDK8/CycC and CDK9/CycT1
We have established a uniform procedure for the expression and purification of the cyclin-dependent kinases CDK7/CycH/MAT1, CDK8/CycC and CDK9/CycT1. We attach a His6-tag to one of the subunits of each complex and then co-express it together with the ...

Cyclin-dependent kinases: a family portrait [PDF]
To the Editor, Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are protein kinases involved in critical cellular processes, such as cell cycle or transcription, whose activity requires association with specific cyclin subunits. Based on sequence similarity, the human genome contains 21 genes encoding CDKs and five additional genes encoding a more distant group of ...

The Role of Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics in Early Drug Development with reference to the Cyclin-dependent Kinase (Cdk) Inhibitor - Roscovitine. [PDF]
Pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and pharmacogenetics play an important role in drug discovery and contribute to treatment success. This is an essential issue in cancer treatment due to its high toxicity. During the last decade, cyclin-dependent kinase

A kinase of many talents: non-neuronal functions of CDK5 in development and disease [PDF]
The cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) represents an unusual member of the family of cyclin-dependent kinases, which is activated upon binding to non-cyclin p35 and p39 proteins. The role of CDK5 in the nervous system has been very well established.

Summary: Multiple protein kinases regulate cell-cycle progression, of which the cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are thought to act as upstream master regulators.

Cell cycle transitions are generally triggered by variation in the activity of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) bound to cyclins. Malaria-causing parasites have a life cycle with unique cell-division cycles, and a repertoire of divergent CDKs and cyclins ...

Inhibition of cyclin-dependent kinases by purine analogues [PDF]
While testing purines related to the non-specific protein kinase inhibitors N6-dimethylaminopurine and N6-(delta2-isopentenyl)adenine as potential inhibitors of the p34cdc2/cyclin B kinase, we discovered a compound with high specificity, 2-(2 ...

STRUCTURAL BIOINFORMATICS STUDY OF CYCLIN-DEPENDENT KINASES COMPLEXED WITH INHIBITORS
The present work describes molecular models for the binary complexes CDK9, CDK5 and CDK1 complexed with Flavopiridol and Roscovitine. These structural models indicate that the inhibitors strongly bind to the ATP-binding pocket of CDKs and the structural ...

Distinct expression pattern and post-transcriptional regulation of cell cycle genes in the glandular epithelia of avian ovarian carcinomas. [PDF]
The cell cycle system is controlled in a timely manner by three groups of cyclins, cyclin dependent kinases and cyclin dependent kinase inhibitors. Abnormal alterations of cell cycle regulatory mechanisms are a common feature of many diseases including ...
