Direct modulation of the non-kinase functions of cyclin and CDK-cyclin complexes poses challenges. We utilize hydrophobic tag (HyT) based small-molecule degraders induced degradation of cyclin T1 and its corresponding kinase partner CDK9. LL-CDK9-12 demonstrated the most potent and selective degradation ability, with DC50 values of 0.362 μM against CDK9 and 0.680 μM against cyclin T1. In prostate cancer cells, LL-CDK9-12 showed enhanced anti-proliferative activity than its parental molecule SNS032 and LL-K9-3, the previous reported CDK9-cyclin T1 degrader. Moreover, LL-CDK9-12 suppressed the downstream signaling of CDK9 and AR efficiently. Altogether, LL-CDK9-12 was an effective dual degrader of CDK9-cyclin T1 and helped study the unknown function of CDK9-cyclin T1. These results suggest that HyT-based degraders could be used as a strategy to induce the degradation of protein complexes, providing insights for the design of protein complexes′ degraders. 相似文献

Cyclin E, an activator of phospho-CDK2 (pCDK2), is important for cell cycle progression in metazoans and is frequently overexpressed in cancer cells. It is essential for entry to the cell cycle from G0 quiescent phase, for the assembly of prereplication complexes and for endoreduplication in megakaryotes and giant trophoblast cells. We report the crystal structure of pCDK2 in complex with a truncated cyclin E1 (residues 81-363) at 2.25 A resolution. The N-terminal cyclin box fold of cyclin E1 is similar to that of cyclin A and promotes identical changes in pCDK2 that lead to kinase activation. The C-terminal cyclin box fold shows significant differences from cyclin A. It makes additional interactions with pCDK2, especially in the region of the activation segment, and contributes to CDK2-independent binding sites of cyclin E. Kinetic analysis with model peptide substrates show a 1.6-fold increase in kcat for pCDK2/cyclin E1 (81-363) over kcat of pCDK2/cyclin E (full length) and pCDK2/cyclin A. The structural and kinetic results indicate no inherent substrate discrimination between pCDK2/cyclin E and pCDK2/cyclin A with model substrates. 相似文献

CDK9 is a protein in constant development in cancer therapy. Herein we present an overview of the enzyme as a target for cancer therapy. We provide data on its characteristics and mechanism of action. In recent years, CDK9 inhibitors that have been designed with molecular modeling have demonstrated good antitumoral activity in vitro. Clinical studies of the drugs flavopiridol, dinaciclib, seliciclib, SNS-032 and RGB-286638 used as CDK9 inhibitors are also reviewed, with their additional targets and their relative IC50 values. Unfortunately, treatment with these drugs remains unsuccessful and involves many adverse effects. We could conclude that there are many small molecules that bind to CDK9, but their lack of selectivity against other CDKs do not allow them to get to the clinical use. However, drug designers currently have the tools needed to improve the selectivity of CDK9 inhibitors and to make successful treatment available to patients. 相似文献

In this paper, we show that substrate specificity is primarily conferred on human mitotic cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) by their subcellular localization. The difference in localization of the B-type cyclin-CDKs underlies the ability of cyclin B1-CDK1 to cause chromosome condensation, reorganization of the microtubules, and disassembly of the nuclear lamina and of the Golgi apparatus, while it restricts cyclin B2-CDK1 to disassembly of the Golgi apparatus. We identify the region of cyclin B2 responsible for its localization and show that this will direct cyclin B1 to the Golgi apparatus and confer upon it the more limited properties of cyclin B2. Equally, directing cyclin B2 to the cytoplasm with the NH(2) terminus of cyclin B1 confers the broader properties of cyclin B1. Furthermore, we show that the disassembly of the Golgi apparatus initiated by either mitotic cyclin-CDK complex does not require mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK) activity. 相似文献

The molecular mechanisms underlying oocyte maturation in the annelid polychaetes Arenicola marina and Arenicola defodiens were investigated. In both species, a hitherto unidentified hormone triggers synchronous and rapid transition from prophase to metaphase, a maturation process which can be easily reproduced in vitro. Activation of a roscovitine- and olomoucine-sensitive M-phase-specific histone, H1 kinase, occurs during oocyte maturation. Using affinity chromatography on immobilized p9CKShs1, we purified CDK1 and cyclin B from oocyte extracts prepared from both phases and both species. In prophase, CDK1 is present both as an inactive, but Thr161-phosphorylated monomer, and as an inactive (Tyr15-phosphorylated) heterodimer with cyclin B. Prophase to metaphase transition is associated with complete tyrosine dephosphorylation of the cyclin B-associated CDK1, with phosphorylation of cyclin B, and with dramatic activation of the kinase activity of the CDK1/cyclin B complex. We propose that Arenicola oocytes may provide an ideal model system to investigate the acquisition of the ability of oocytes to be fertilized that occurs as oocyte shift from prophase to metaphase, an important physiological event, probably regulated by active CDK1/cyclin B. 相似文献

The enzymatic activity of the CDK2/Cyclin A complex increases upon the specific phosphorylation of Thr160@CDK2. In the present study, we have performed a comparative molecular dynamics (MD) study of models of the complex CDK2/Cyclin A/Substrate, which differ for the presence or absence of the phosphate group bound to Thr160. The models are based on two X-ray structures available for CDK2/CyclinA and pCDK2/CyclinA/Substrate complexes. In this way, we analyze the influence of the phosphorylated Thr160 (pThr160) on both the flexibility of CDK2 activation loop (AL) and substrate binding in CDK2. Our calculations point to a decreased flexibility of the AL in the phosphorylated model, in fairly good agreement with experimental data, and to a key role of pThr160 for substrate recognition and stability. Multiple alignments of the CDKs sequences point to the very high conservation of the AL sequence among the CDKs, thus extending our results to all CDKs. 相似文献

Human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) exploits a number of host cellular factors for successful survival and propagation. The viral protein Nef plays an important role in HIV-1 pathogenesis by interacting with various cellular proteins. In the present work, we identified Cyclin K (CycK) as a novel Nef-interacting protein, and for the first time, we showed that CycK inhibits HIV-1 gene expression and replication in a Nef-dependent manner. The positive elongation factor b complex comprising cyclin-dependent kinase 9 (CDK9) and Cyclin T1 is a critical cellular complex required for viral gene expression and replication. Enhanced expression of CycK in the presence of Nef induced CycK-CDK9 binding, which prevented CDK9-Cyclin T1 complex formation and nuclear translocation of CDK9, resulting in inhibition of HIV-1 long terminal repeat-driven gene expression. Furthermore, this effect of CycK was not observed with Nef-deleted virus, indicating the importance of Nef in this phenomenon. Finally, silencing of CycK in HIV-1-infected cells resulted in increased translocation of CDK9 into the nucleus, leading to increased viral gene expression and replication. These data also suggest that endogenous CycK might act as an inhibitory factor for HIV-1 gene expression and replication in T-cells. Thus, our results clearly demonstrate that CycK utilizes HIV-1 Nef protein to displace CycT1 from the positive elongation factor b complex, resulting in inhibition of HIV-1 gene expression and replication. 相似文献

Spindle positioning and spindle elongation are critical for proper cell division. In human cells, an evolutionary conserved ternary complex (NuMA/LGN/Gαi) anchors dynein at the cortex during metaphase, thus ensuring correct spindle positioning. Whether this complex contributes to anaphase spindle elongation is not known. More generally, the mechanisms coupling mitotic progression with spindle behaviour remain elusive. Here, we uncover that levels of cortical dynein markedly increase during anaphase in a NuMA‐dependent manner. We demonstrate that during metaphase, CDK1‐mediated phosphorylation at T2055 negatively regulates NuMA cortical localization and that this phosphorylation is counteracted by PPP2CA phosphatase activity. We establish that this tug of war is essential for proper levels of cortical dynein and thus spindle positioning during metaphase. Moreover, we find that upon CDK1 inactivation in anaphase, the rise in dephosphorylated NuMA at the cell cortex leads to cortical dynein enrichment, and thus to robust spindle elongation. Our findings uncover a mechanism whereby the status of NuMA phosphorylation coordinates mitotic progression with proper spindle function. 相似文献
