It is 25 years since Tim Hunt discovered cyclin, the oscillating protein that drives activation of cyclin-dependent kinases and entry into mitosis (Evans et al., 1983).

Cyclin F regulates the nuclear localization of cyclin B1 through a cyclin-cyclin interaction [PDF]
The key regulator of G(2)-M transition of the cell cycle is M-phase promoting factor (MPF), a complex composed of cdc2 and a B-type cyclin. Cyclin B1 nuclear localization involves phosphorylation within a region called the cytoplasmic retention signal, which also contains a nuclear export signal.

Overexpression of Cyclin A and Cyclin B1Proteins in Astrocytomas [PDF]
AbstractBackground.—Cyclins are proteins that are expressed during the progression of a normal cell through the cell cycle. In a number of cancers, overexpression of cyclin A and cyclin B1 proteins has been reported, and in some instances the levels of expression correlated well with the grades of malignancy.

Cyclin C: The Story of a Non-Cycling Cyclin [PDF]
The class I cyclin family is a well-studied group of structurally conserved proteins that interact with their associated cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks) to regulate different stages of cell cycle progression depending on their oscillating expression levels.

Cyclin K and cyclin D1b are oncogenic in myeloma cells [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundAberrant expression of cyclin D1 is a common feature in multiple myeloma (MM) and always associated with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).CCND1gene is alternatively spliced to produce two cyclin D1 mRNA isoforms which are translated in two proteins: cyclin D1a and cyclin D1b.

How the Cyclin Became a Cyclin [PDF]
As is readily apparent, proteolysis plays a tremendously important and varied role in cell cycle regulation. While the SCF and APC are key regulators, other proteolytic systems may also contribute to cell cycle control. A well-documented case is the stabilization of p53 in response to DNA damage.

p27Kip1, an Intrinsically Unstructured Protein with Scaffold Properties
The Cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) regulator p27Kip1 is a gatekeeper of G1/S transition. It also regulates G2/M progression and cytokinesis completion, via CDK-dependent or -independent mechanisms.

Measuring the dynamics with which the regulatory complexes assemble and disassemble is a crucial barrier to our understanding of how the cell cycle is controlled that until now has been difficult to address.
