Disease relevance of CDC2

 

High impact information on CDC2

  • In the absence of p97-Ufd1-Npl4 function, microtubules in Xenopus egg extracts remain as monopolar spindles attached to condensed chromosomes after Cdc2 kinase activity has returned to the interphase level [6].
  • The nim1-catalyzed phosphorylation of the wee1 protein occurs in its C-terminal region and leads to a substantial drop in its activity as a cdc2-specific tyrosine kinase [7].
  • SGV1 encodes a CDC28/cdc2-related kinase required for a G alpha subunit-mediated adaptive response to pheromone in S. cerevisiae [8].
  • Since the S. cerevisiae CDC2 gene has recently been shown to have DNA sequence similarity to the active site regions of other known DNA polymerases, but to nevertheless be different from DNA polymerase I, we examined cdc2 mutants for the presence of DNA polymerases II and III [9].
  • These findings suggest that ORC functions are conserved among eukaryotes and provide evidence that Cdc2 controls DNA replication initiation by acting directly at chromosomal origins [10].
 

Biological context of CDC2

  • These results suggest that in human cells, two different CDC2-like kinases may regulate the cell cycle at distinct stages [11].
  • In this paper we determine partial amino acid sequences of the 125 and 55 kDa polypeptides and find that they match parts of the amino acid sequences predicted from the nucleotide sequence of the CDC2 and HYS2 genes respectively [12].
  • The temperature-sensitive growth phenotype of hys2-1 and hys2-2 mutations could be suppressed by the CDC2 gene on a multicopy plasmid [12].
  • The nucleotide sequence of a 5 kb EcoRI-NcoI fragment of chromosome IV, contiguous to gene POL3 (CDC2), has been determined [13].
  • Thermal inactivation of DNA polymerase delta in pol3 nuclear extracts enhanced DNA repair synthesis approximately 2-fold, an effect which could be specifically reversed by the addition of purified yeast DNA polymerase delta to the extract [14].

Regulatory relationships of CDC2

 

Other interactions of CDC2

  • Cloning of a human cDNA encoding a CDC2-related kinase by complementation of a budding yeast cdc28 mutation [11].
  • Such an involvement was previously suggested by in vivo analysis for CDC2 but was less clear for CDC16 [29].
  • The second subunit of DNA polymerase III (delta) is encoded by the HYS2 gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [12].
  • New alleles of the CDC2 and CDC17 genes were recovered among these mutants [30].
  • The mutator effects of mutations in the DNA polymerase delta (POL3) gene and the recombinational repair RAD52 gene were studied in combination with mismatch repair defects [31].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of CDC2

  • DNA polymerase III (delta) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is purified as a complex of at least two polypeptides with molecular masses of 125 and 55 kDa as judged by SDS-PAGE [12].
  • Through the use of gel-filtration chromatography, we have studied the interaction of the model template-primer system poly(dA).(dT)16 (40:1) with yeast DNA polymerase III and with PCNAs [32].
  • Southern blot analysis, as well as isolation of another cDNA clone, cdc2ZmB, which is 96% identical to cdc2ZmA, indicates that maize has multiple cdc2 genes [33].
  • Studies of expression of the maize cdc2 gene(s) by Northern blot analysis indicated a correlation between the abundance of cdc2 mRNA and the proliferative state of the tissue [33].
  • Five putative cleavage sites of this protease in Ty3 GAG3 and GAG3-POL3 polyproteins were defined by amino-terminal sequence analysis [34].
