Abstract excerpt
Cyclin A is known to promote S-phase entry in mammals, but its critical targets in this process have not been defined. We derived a novel human cyclin A mutant (CycA-C1), which can activate cyclin-dependent kinase but cannot promote S-phase entry, and isolated replication licensing factor Mcm7 as a factor that interacts with the wild-type cyclin A but not with the mutant. We demonstrated that human cyclin A and...
