Abstract

It was recently demonstrated that ectopic expression of cyclin D1 inhibits skeletal muscle differentiation and, conversely, that expression of cyclin-dependent kinase (cdk) inhibitors facilitates activation of this differentiation program (S. S. Rao, C. Chu, and D. S. Kohtz, Mol. Cell. Biol. 14:5259-5267, 1994; S. S. Rao and D. S. Kohtz, J. Biol. Chem. 270:4093-4100, 1995; S. X. Skapek, J. Rhee, D. B. Spicer, and A. B. Lassar, Science 267:1022-1024, 1995). Here we demonstrate that cyclin D1 inhibits muscle gene expression without affecting MyoD DNA binding activity. Ectopic expression of cyclin D1 inhibits muscle gene activation by both MyoD and myogenin, including a mutated form of myogenin in which two potential inhibitory cdk phosphorylation sites are absent. Because the retinoblastoma gene product, pRB, is a known target for cyclin D1-cdk phosphorylation, we determined whether cyclin D1-mediated inhibition of myogenesis was due to hyperphosphorylation of pRB. In pRB-deficient fibroblasts, the ability of MyoD to activate the expression of muscle-specific genes requires coexpression of ectopic pRB (B. G. Novitch, G. J. Mulligan, T. Jacks, and A. B. Lassar, J. Cell Biol., 135:441-456, 1996). In these cells, the expression of c...Continue Reading

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.
