Cyclins and CDKs in the regulation of meiosis-specific events
How eukaryotic cells control their duplication is a fascinating example of how a biological system self-organizes specific activities to temporally order cellular events.

The crystal structure of cyclin A [PDF]
Eukaryotic cell cycle progression is regulated by cyclin dependent protein kinases (CDKs) whose activity is regulated by association with cyclins and by reversible phosphorylation. Cyclins also determine the subcellular location and substrate specificity of CDKs.

Molecular evolution of cyclin proteins in animals and fungi
Background The passage through the cell cycle is controlled by complexes of cyclins, the regulatory units, with cyclin-dependent kinases, the catalytic units.

Non-covalent immunoproteasome inhibitors induce cell cycle arrest in multiple myeloma MM.1R cells
Proteasome inhibition is a promising strategy for the treatment of multiple myeloma; unfortunately, this disease is often associated with an increasing chemoresistance.

Increased protein synthesis is a key process in melanoma, which is regulated by the ALDH18A1 gene encoding pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthase (P5CS). P5CS is involved in proline biosynthesis and targeting ALDH18A1 has previously been shown to inhibit ...

Herpesvirus saimiri contains an open reading frame called eclf2 with homology to the cellular type D cyclins. We now show that the eclf2 gene product is a novel virus-encoded cyclin (v-cyclin). The protein encoded by the v-cyclin gene of this oncogenic herpesvirus was found to have an apparent molecular size of 29 kDa in transformed cells.

A novel function for the mitotic checkpoint protein Mad2p in translation
MAD2L1 (Mitotic Arrest Deficient 2 Like 1), a member of the mitotic checkpoint, maintains the genomic stability by insuring the proper segregation of the sister chromatids. Deregulation of MAD2L1 protein expression is a recurrent feature in cancer cells.

Phylogenetic analysis of cell-cycle regulatory proteins within the Symbiodiniaceae
In oligotrophic waters, cnidarian hosts rely on symbiosis with their photosynthetic dinoflagellate partners (family Symbiodiniaceae) to obtain the nutrients they need to grow, reproduce and survive.

Dynamic anticipation by Cdk2/Cyclin A-bound p27 mediates signal integration in cell cycle regulation [PDF]
p27$^{Kip1}$ (p27) is an intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) that folds upon binding to cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk)$/$cyclin complexes (e.g., Cdk2$/$cyclin A), inhibiting their catalytic activity and causing cell cycle arrest. However, cell division progresses when stably Cdk2$/$cyclin A-bound p27 is phosphorylated on one or two structurally ...

Overexpression of mouse D-type cyclins accelerates G1 phase in rodent fibroblasts.
Mammalian D-type cyclins are growth factor-regulated, delayed early response genes that are presumed to control progression through the G1 phase of the cell cycle by governing the activity of cyclin-dependent kinases (cdks).
