Abstract excerpt
Mammalian cyclin A-CDK (cyclin-dependent kinase) activity during mitotic exit is regulated by two redundant pathways, cyclin degradation and CDK inhibitors (CKIs). Ectopic expression of a destruction box-truncated (thereby stabilized) mutant of cyclin A in the mouse embryonic fibroblasts nullizygous for three CKIs (p21, p27, and p107) results in constitutive activation ("hyperactivation") of cyclin A-CDK and...
