Identification and properties of an atypical catalytic subunit (p34PSK-J3/cdk4) for mammalian D type G1 cyclins. 总被引:103,自引:0,他引:103
Murine D type cyclins associate with a catalytic subunit (p34PSK-J3) with properties distinct from known cyclin-dependent kinases (cdks). Mouse p34PSK-J3 shows less than 50% amino acid identity to p34cdc2, p33cdk2, and p36cdk3, lacks a PSTAIRE motif, and does not bind to p13suc1. Cyclin D1-p34PSK-J3 complexes accumulate in macrophages during G1 and decline in S phase, whereas complexes involving cyclins D2 and D3 form in proliferating T cells. Although histone H1 kinase activity is not detected in cyclin D or PSK-J3 immunoprecipitates, cyclin D-p34PSK-J3 complexes assembled in vitro stably bind and phosphorylate the retinoblastoma gene product (pRb) and an Rb-like protein (p107) but do not interact with pRb mutants that are functionally inactive. Thus, p34PSK-J3 is a cyclin D-regulated catalytic subunit that acts as an Rb (but not H1) kinase. 相似文献

The overexpression and/or amplification of cell cycle regulating genes is an important factor in the progression of cancer. Recent attention has been focused on several cyclin and cdks genes whose expression were increased in many types of tumor. In this study, we investigated the expression kinetics of cyclins A, B, D1, E and cdks 1, 2, 4, 6 by RT-PCR coupled with densitometry and correlated to the growth fraction (percentage of S cells). This analysis was performed using an experimental murine leukemic model, generated by in vivo administration of murine clonogenic cells Wehi-3b injected into balb-c mice. Differential expression of cyclins and cdks was observed between normal and tumoral cells with different patterns of expression between G1 and G2M cyclins-cdks. G1 cyclins cdks expression was significantly increased in tumor cells when compared to normal cells. In the same manner, G2M cyclins cdks expression was only observed in tumor cells at a lower level than for G1 cyclins cdks, but not detected in normal cells. These differences correlated with the growth fraction for both the G1 cyclins cdks (r = 0.91, 0.94, 0.85, 0.90 and 0.96 for cyclin D1, cyclin E, cdk2, cdk4 and cdk6, respectively) and the G2M cyclins cdks (r = 0.96, 0.97 and 0.93 for cyclins A, B and cdkl respectively). Analysis of cyclins cdks expression kinetics during tumoral progression shows that cyclins A, B and cdkl were expressed from the 12th day on of disease, increased until the death of the animals and correlated with the growth fraction (r = 0.94, 0.95 and 0.97 for cyclins A, B and cdk1 respectively) (n = 20). Overexpression of other cyclins cdks were observed, from the 6th day on for cyclin D1, the 12th day for cdk2 and cdk4, the 15th day for cdk6 and the 20th day for cyclin E. These increases persisted during tumoral progression and correlated with the growth fraction (r = 0.85, 0.94, 0.93, 0.96, and 0.98 for cyclin D1, cyclin E, cdk2, cdk4 and cdk6, respectively) (n = 20). Our results demonstrated that G1 and G2-M cyclins cdks mRNA levels were increased at approximately the same time of maximal tumor growth. Only cyclin D1 overexpression occured at the initiation of tumoral development, and could therefore be considered as an early marker of cell proliferation. 相似文献

The activation of conditional alleles of Myc induces both cell proliferation and apoptosis in serum-deprived RAT1 fibroblasts. Entry into S phase and apoptosis are both preceded by increased levels of cyclin E- and cyclin D1-dependent kinase activities. To assess which, if any, cellular responses to Myc depend on active cyclin-dependent kinases (cdks), we have microinjected expression plasmids encoding the cdk inhibitors p16, p21 or p27, and have used a specific inhibitor of cdk2, roscovitine. Expression of cyclin A, which starts late in G1 phase, served as a marker for cell cycle progression. Our data show that active G1 cyclin/cdk complexes are both necessary and sufficient for induction of cyclin A by Myc. In contrast, neither microinjection of cdk inhibitors nor chemical inhibition of cdk2 affected the ability of Myc to induce apoptosis in serum-starved cells. Further, in isoleucine-deprived cells, Myc induces apoptosis without altering cdk activity. We conclude that Myc acts upstream of cdks in stimulating cell proliferation and also that activation of cdks and induction of apoptosis are largely independent events that occur in response to induction of Myc. 相似文献

In trol mutants, neuroblasts fail to exit G1 for S phase. Increasing string expression in trol mutants rescues the number of S phase neuroblasts without an increase in M phase neuroblasts. Decreasing string expression further decreased the number of S phase neuroblasts. Coexpression of cyclin E and string did not produce additional S phase cells. Unlike cyclin E, cdk2, and cdk2AF, elevated expression of neither cyclin A, cyclin D, nor cdk1AF was able to promote S phase progression in arrested neuroblasts, indicating that String-induced activity of a Cyclin A or Cyclin D complex is unlikely to drive trol neuroblasts into S phase. Biochemical analyses revealed a rapid increase of Cyclin E-Cdk2 kinase activity to wild-type levels upon increased string expression. These results suggest that Drosophila Cdc25 may directly or indirectly increase the kinase activity of Cyclin E-Cdk2 complexes in vivo, thus driving arrested neuroblasts into cell division. 相似文献

Cyclic AMP is a second messenger for various hormones that inhibits cell multiplication and DNA synthesis in cultured astrocytes. We examined the effects of increasing intracellular cyclic AMP on the catalytic (cdks) and regulatory (cyclins and ckis) components of cyclin-dependent protein kinases, which regulate progression of the cell cycle before completion of DNA synthesis, in primary cultured astrocytes and in an astrocytic cell line C.LT.T.1.1. The amount of cdk4 changed little during the cell cycle and was not affected by cyclic AMP. There was little cdk1 and cdk2 in quiescent cells, and their expression increased during the G1-S phases. Cyclic AMP strongly inhibited cdk1 and cdk2 expression. Transforming growth factor beta also inhibited cdk1 expression in primary astrocytes. Cyclic AMP did not affect the two ckis p27KIP1 and p21CIP1. There was little cyclin D1 in quiescent cells, but it increased during the G1 phase and was reduced by cyclic AMP. Cyclin E increased during the G1-S phases and was not affected by cyclic AMP in primary astrocytes. The amount of cyclin A was low in quiescent cells and increased during the G1-S phases. Expression of its mRNA and protein was inhibited by cyclic AMP. The protein kinase activities associated with complexes of cyclins and cdks were increased by growth factors and prevented by cyclic AMP. We conclude that cyclic AMP inhibits progression of the cell cycle in astrocytes at least by preventing the expression of the regulatory subunits, cyclins D1 and A, and catalytic subunits, cdk1 and cdk2, of cyclin-regulated protein kinases.

D cyclins (D1, D2 and D3) and their catalytic subunits (cyclin-dependent kinases cdk4 and cdk6) have a facilitating, but nonessential, role in cell cycle entry. Tissue-specific functions for D-type cyclins and cdks have been reported; however, the biochemical properties of these kinases are indistinguishable. We report that an F box protein, Fbxo7, interacted with cellular and viral D cyclins and distinguished among the cdks that bind D-type cyclins, specifically binding cdk6, in vitro and in vivo. Fbxo7 specifically regulated D cyclin/cdk6 complexes: Fbxo7 knockdown decreased cdk6 association with cyclin and its overexpression increased D cyclin/cdk6 activity and E2F activity. Fbxo7 interacted with p27, but its enhancement of cyclin D/cdk6 activity was p21/p27 independent. Fbxo7 overexpression transformed murine fibroblasts, rendering them tumorigenic in athymic nude mice. Transformed phenotypes were dependent on cdk6, as knockdown of cdk6 reversed them. Fbxo7 was highly expressed in epithelial tumors, but not in normal tissues, suggesting that it may have a proto-oncogenic role in human cancers. 相似文献

Overexpression of cdk4/cyclin D1 induces apoptosis in PC12 cells in the presence of trophic support.

The induction of apoptosis by cell cycle regulator molecules under conditions optimal for exponential growth was examined in rat pheochromocytoma PC12 cells by overexpression of cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (cdks). By flow cytometry and by immunofluorescence, only cells overexpressing cdk4 or cyclin D1 underwent apoptosis, which was not associated with G1-arrest. Cdk4 kinase activity was significantly higher in cdk4-, or cyclin D1-expressing cells. Furthermore, induction of apoptosis by cdk4 was abrogated by co-transfection of p16(INK4), or dominant negative cdk4. These results suggest that upregulation of cdk4 kinase activity is a primary and critical mediator of apoptosis in PC12 cells under physiological conditions. 相似文献

Cyclin-dependent kinase (cdk) inhibitors have the potential to induce growth arrest and apoptosis in cancer cells. The genes encoding cdks involved in G1-S progression are often amplified in B-cell malignancies, including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Here, we evaluated the in vitro cytotoxic activity of the cdk2 inhibitor CVT-313 against several human DLBCL cells. Treatment of DLBCL cells with CVT-313 resulted in apoptosis. CVT-313 treatment reduced cdk2-mediated phosphorylation of the retinoblastoma gene product (Rb) on T821, but did not affect cyclin D-cdk4/6-mediated Rb phosphorylation on S807/811. Depletion of endogenous cdk2 by short interfering (si)RNA also resulted in apoptosis in human LY3, LY8 and LY18 DLBCL cells. Importantly, inhibition of cdk2 with CVT-313 or knockdown of endogenous cdk2 with siRNA resulted in down-regulation of the anti-apoptotic factor Myeloid cell leukemia-1 (Mcl-1), suggesting that decreased levels of cellular Mcl-1 contribute to apoptosis. In support of this, siRNA-mediated knockdown of Mcl-1 was sufficient to induce apoptosis in LY3 and LY18 DLBCL. Further, cdk2 inhibition led to decreased Mcl-1 mRNA levels, which was proceeded by reduced phosphorylation of serine 2 on the carboxyl terminal domain (CTD) of RNA polymerase II. Taken together, these data suggest that cdk2 activity is necessary for the survival of human DLBCL. 相似文献

v-Jun accelerates G(1) progression and shares the capacity of the Myc, E2F, and E1A oncoproteins to sustain S-phase entry in the absence of mitogens; however, how it does so is unknown. To gain insight into the mechanism, we investigated how v-Jun affects mitogen-dependent processes which control the G(1)/S transition. We show that v-Jun enables cells to express cyclin A and cyclin A-cdk2 kinase activity in the absence of growth factors and that deregulation of cdk2 is required for S-phase entry. Cyclin A expression is repressed in quiescent cells by E2F acting in conjunction with its pocket protein partners Rb, p107, and p130; however, v-Jun overrides this control, causing phosphorylated Rb and proliferation-specific E2F-p107 complexes to persist after mitogen withdrawal. Dephosphorylation of Rb and destruction of cyclin A nevertheless occur normally at mitosis, indicating that v-Jun enables cells to rephosphorylate Rb and reaccumulate cyclin A without exogenous mitogenic stimulation each time the mitotic "clock" is reset. D-cyclin-cdk activity is required for Rb phosphorylation in v-Jun-transformed cells, since ectopic expression of the cdk4- and cdk6-specific inhibitor p16(INK4A) inhibits both DNA synthesis and cell proliferation. Despite this, v-Jun does not stimulate D-cyclin-cdk activity but does induce a marked deregulation of cyclin E-cdk2. In particular, hormonal activation of a conditional v-Jun-estrogen receptor fusion protein in quiescent, growth factor-deprived cells stimulates cyclin E-cdk2 activity and triggers Rb phosphorylation and DNA synthesis. Thus, v-Jun overrides the mitogen dependence of S-phase entry by deregulating Rb phosphorylation, E2F-pocket protein interactions, and ultimately cyclin A-cdk2 activity. This is the first report, however, that cyclin E-cdk2, rather than D-cyclin-cdk, is likely to be the critical Rb kinase target of v-Jun. 相似文献

Human papillomaviral (HPV) origin-containing plasmids replicate efficiently in human 293 cells or cell extracts in the presence of HPV origin-recognition protein E2 and replication initiation protein E1, whereas cervical carcinoma-derived, HPV-18-positive HeLa cells or cell extracts support HPV DNA replication poorly. We recently showed that HPV-11 E1 interacts with cyclin/cyclin-dependent kinase (cdk) complexes through an RXL motif and is a substrate for these kinases. E1 mutations in this motif or in candidate cdk phosphorylation sites are impaired in replication, suggesting a role for cdks in HPV replication. We now demonstrate that one limiting activity in HeLa cells is cyclin E/CDK2. Purified cyclin E/CDK2 or cyclin E/CDK3 complex, but not other cdks, partially complemented HeLa cell extracts. Cyclin E/CDK2 expression vectors also enhanced transient HPV replication in HeLa cells. HeLa cell-derived HPV-18 E1 protein is truncated at the carboxyl terminus but can associate with cyclin E/CDK2. This truncated E1 was replication-incompetent and inhibited cell-free HPV replication. These results indicate that HeLa cells are phenotypically limiting in cyclin E/CDK2 for efficient HPV replication, most likely due to sequestration by the endogenous, defective HPV-18 E1 protein. Further analyses of the regulation of HPV E1 and HPV replication by cyclin E may shed light on the roles of cyclin E/CDK2 in cellular DNA replication. 相似文献

C/EBPα arrests proliferation of young livers by inhibition of cdk2. In old mice, C/EBPα inhibits growth by repression of E2F-dependent promoters through the C/EBPα-Brm complex. In this paper, we show that cyclin D3-cdk4/cdk6 supports the ability of C/EBPα to inhibit liver proliferation in both age groups. Although cyclin D3-cdk4/cdk6 kinases are involved in the promotion of growth, they are expressed in terminally differentiated cells, suggesting that they have additional functions in these settings. We demonstrate that C/EBPα represents a target for phosphorylation by cyclin D3-cdk4/cdk6 complexes in differentiated liver cells and in differentiated adipocytes. Cyclin D3-cdk4/cdk6 specifically phosphorylate C/EBPα at Ser193 in vitro and in the liver and support growth-inhibitory C/EBPα-cdk2 and C/EBPα-Brm complexes. We found that cyclin D3 is increased in old livers and activates cdk4/cdk6, resulting in stabilization of the C/EBPα-Brm complex. Old livers fail to reduce the activity of cyclin D3-cdk4/cdk6 after partial hepatectomy, leading to high levels of C/EBPα-Brm complexes after partial hepatectomy, which correlate with weak proliferation. We examined the role of cyclin D3 in the stabilization of C/EBPα-cdk2 and C/EBPα-Brm by using 3T3-L1 differentiated cells. In these cells, cyclin D3 is increased during differentiation and phosphorylates C/EBPα at Ser193, leading to the formation of growth-inhibitory C/EBPα-cdk2 and C/EBPα-Brm complexes. The inhibition of cyclin D3 blocks the formation of these complexes. Thus, these studies provide a new function of cyclin D3, which is to support the growth-inhibitory activity of C/EBPα. 相似文献

Prostaglandin A2 (PGA2) potently inhibits cell proliferation and suppresses tumor growth in vivo, but little is known regarding the molecular mechanisms mediating these effects. Here we demonstrate that treatment of breast carcinoma MCF-7 cells with PGA2 leads to G1 arrest associated with a dramatic decrease in the levels of cyclin D1 and cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (cdk4) and accompanied by an increase in the expression of p21. We further show that these effects occur independent of cellular p53 status. The decline in cyclin D and cdk4 protein levels is correlated with loss in cdk4 kinase activity, cdk2 activity is also significantly inhibited in PGA2-treated cells, an effect closely associated with the upregulation of p21. Immunoprecipitation experiments verified that p21 was indeed complexed with cdk2 in PGA2-treated cells. Additional experiments with synchronized MCF-7 cultures stimulated with serum revealed that treatment with PGA2 prevents the progression of cells from G1 to S. Accordingly, the kinase activity associated with cdk4, cyclin E, and cdk2 immunocomplexes, which normally increases following serum addition, was unchanged in PGA2-treated cells. Furthermore, the retinoblastoma protein (Rb), a substrate of cdk4 and cdk2 whose phosphorylation is necessary for cell cycle progression, remains underphosphorylated in PGA2-treated serum-stimulated cells. These findings indicate that PGA2 exerts its growth-inhibitory effects through modulation of the expression and/or activity of several key G1 regulatory proteins. Our results highlight the chemotherapeutic potential of PGA2, particularly for suppressing growth of tumors lacking p53 function. 相似文献

Uterine decidualization, characterized by stromal cell proliferation, and differentiation into specialized type of cells (decidual cells) with polyploidy, during implantation is critical to the pregnancy establishment in mice. The mechanisms by which the cell cycle events govern these processes are poorly understood. The cell cycle is tightly regulated at two particular checkpoints, G1-S and G2-M phases. Normal operation of these phases involves a complex interplay of cyclins, cyclin-dependent kinases (cdks) and cdk inhibitors (CKIs). We previously observed that upregulation of uterine cyclin D3 at the implantation site is tightly associated with decidualization in mice. To better understand the role of cyclin D3 in this process, we examined cell-specific expression and associated interactions of several cell cycle regulators (cyclins, cdks and CKIs) specific to different phases of the cell cycle during decidualization in mice. Among the various cell cycle molecules examined, coordinate expression and functional association of cyclin D3 with cdk4 suggest a role for proliferation and, that of cyclin D3 with p21 and cdk6 is consistent with the development of polyploidy during stromal cell decidualization. 相似文献

Cyclin D1 is known as a promoting factor for cell growth. We previously showed, however, that the expression of cyclin D1 increases markedly in senescent human fibroblastsin vitro.Here we investigate whether the overexpression of cyclin D1 inhibits cell proliferation. Colony formation after transfection with the cyclin D1 expression vector was repressed in NIH-3T3, TIG-1, CHO-K1, and HeLa cells, compared with those with mock and cyclin E expression vectors. A transient transfection assay demonstrated that the overexpression of cyclin D1 inhibited DNA synthesis of TIG-1 cells. The complexes of cyclin D1 with PCNA and cdk2 increased remarkably in senescent cells, compared with young counterparts. Excessive glutathioneS-transferase (GST)–cyclin D1 inhibited DNA replication and repressed cdk2-dependent kinase activityin vitro.DNA synthesis of NIH-3T3 transfectants with PCNA or cdk2 expression vectors was not inhibited by the overexpression of cyclin D1. These results indicate that an excessive level of cyclin D1 represses cell proliferation by inhibiting DNA replication and cdk2 activity through the binding of cyclin D1 to PCNA and cdk2, as it does in senescent cells. 相似文献
