| DEFINITION |
Cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (298 aa, ~34 kDa) is encoded by the human CDK2 gene. This protein is involved in the regulation of both phosphorylation of cyclins and the cell cycle progression from the G2 phase to mitosis. |
| DesignNote |
This protein kinase is a catalytic subunit of the cyclin-dependent protein kinase complex, whose activity is restricted to the G1-S phase, and essential for cell cycle G1/S phase transition. It is involved in promoting DNA synthesis and cell cycle progression. This protein associates with and is regulated by the regulatory subunits of the complex including cyclin A or E, CDK inhibitor p21Cip1 (CDKN1A) and p27Kip1 (CDKN1B). Its activity is also regulated by its protein phosphorylation. Two alternatively spliced variants and multiple transcription initiation sites of this gene exist. Its N-terminal domain interacts with cyclins and C-terminal domain interacts with CSK1. (LocusLink, OMIM) |
