Cdk5-mediated Phosphorylation of c-Myc on Ser-62 Is Essential in Transcriptional Activation of Cyclin B1 by Cyclin G1*S⃞

چکیده
It has been reported previously that cyclin G1 enables cells to overcome radiation-induced G(2) arrest and increased cell death and that these effects are mediated by transcriptional activation of cyclin B1. In this study, we further investigated the mechanism by which cyclin G1 transcriptionally activates cyclin B1. Deletion or point mutations within the cyclin B1 promoter region revealed that the c-Myc binding site (E-box) is necessary for cyclin G1-mediated transcriptional activation of cyclin B1 to occur. In addition, the kinase activity of Cdk5 was increased by cyclin G1 overexpression, and Cdk5 directly phosphorylated c-Myc on Ser-62. Furthermore, cyclin G1 mediated increased radiosensitivity, and radiation-induced M phase arrest was attenuated when RNA interference of Cdk5 was treated. Taken together, the results of this study indicate that Cdk5 activation in cells that overexpress cyclin G1 leads to c-Myc phosphorylation on Ser-62, which is responsible for cyclin G1-mediated transcriptional activation of cyclin B1.

Cdk5 phosphorylates Cdh1 and modulates cyclin B1 stability in excitotoxicity.
Anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C), an E3 ubiquitin ligase that destabilizes cell cycle proteins, is activated by Cdh1 in post-mitotic neurons, where it regulates axonal growth, synaptic plasticity and survival. The APC/C-Cdh1 substrate, cyclin B1, has been found to accumulate in degenerating brain areas in Alzheimer's disease and stroke. This highlights the importance of elucidating ...
متن کاملCyclin-dependent kinase 5 modulates STAT3 and androgen receptor activation through phosphorylation of Ser⁷²⁷ on STAT3 in prostate cancer cells.
Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5) is known to regulate prostate cancer metastasis. Our previous results indicated that Cdk5 activates androgen receptor (AR) and supports prostate cancer growth. We also found that STAT3 is a target of Cdk5 in promoting thyroid cancer cell growth, whereas STAT3 may play a role as a regulator to AR activation under cytokine control. In this study, we investigated t...

An unbounded number of events exist beneath the intricacy of each particular hematologic malignancy, prompting the tumor cells into an unrestrained proliferation and invasion. Aberrant expression of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) is one of these events which disrupts regulation of cell cycle and subsequently, results in cancer progression. In this study, we surveyed the repressive impact of mu...

Cellular adhesion to the extracellular matrix is mediated by a diverse class of alpha/beta heterodimeric receptors known as integrins, which transduce signals to activate multiple intracellular signal transduction pathways within the cells. The signaling pathway linking integrins to mediate neuronal process outgrowth is not well understood. Here, we have provided evidence that intracellular sig...
