Cdk2 is Required for Breast Cancer Mediated by the Low-Molecular-Weight Isoform of Cyclin E
9 Mar 2011
Abstract excerpt
Cyclin E activates Cdk2, controls centrosome duplication, and regulates histone gene transcription. Cyclin E is deregulated in cancer and appears as low-molecular-weight (LMW) isoforms that correlate strongly with decreased survival in breast cancer patients. Transgenic mice overexpressing LMW-cyclin E have increased incidence of mammary tumors and distant metastasis when compared with mice that had full-length...
