Abstract excerpt
p27(Kip1) (p27) acts as a tumor suppressor by inhibiting cyclin-cyclin-dependent kinase (cyclin-CDK) activity. However, mice expressing a form of p27 that is unable to bind or inhibit cyclin-CDK complexes (p27(CK-)) have increased incidence of tumor development as compared with wild-type and p27(-/-) mice, revealing an oncogenic role for p27. Here, we identified a phenotype of multinucleation and polyploidy in...
