Chemical inhibitors of cyclin-dependent kinases

Progress in Cell Cycle Research
L Meijer

Abstract

The eukaryotic cell division cycle is regulated by a family of protein kinases, the cyclin-dependent kinases (cdk's), constituted of at least two subunits, a catalytic subunit (cdk1-7) associated with a regulatory subunit (cyclin A-H). Transient activation of cdk's is responsible for transition through the different phases of the cell cycle. Major abnormalities of cdk's expression and regulation have been described in human tumours. Enzymatic screening is starting to uncover chemical inhibitors of cdk's with anti-mitotic activities. This review summarizes our knowledge of these first inhibitors, their mechanism of action, their effects on the cell cycle, and discusses the potential of such type of inhibitors as anti-tumour agents.

Cell Checkpoints & Regulators

Cell cycle checkpoints are a series of complex checkpoint mechanisms that detect DNA abnormalities and ensure that DNA replication and repair are complete before cell division. They are primarily regulated by cyclins, cyclin-dependent kinases, and the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome. Here is the latest research.

Cell Cycle Pathways

Cell cycle is a complex process regulated by several signal transduction pathways and enzymes. Here is the latest research on regulation of cell cycle and cell cycle pathways.
