Crystal structure of Cdk2 in complex with Cyclin A inhibitor 6-[(E)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)ethenyl]-2-{[(2R)-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1-methoxy-1-oxopropan-2-yl]carbamoyl}quinoline-4-carboxylic acid
Structural highlights
FunctionCDK2_HUMAN Serine/threonine-protein kinase involved in the control of the cell cycle; essential for meiosis, but dispensable for mitosis. Phosphorylates CTNNB1, USP37, p53/TP53, NPM1, CDK7, RB1, BRCA2, MYC, NPAT, EZH2. Interacts with cyclins A, B1, B3, D, or E. Triggers duplication of centrosomes and DNA. Acts at the G1-S transition to promote the E2F transcriptional program and the initiation of DNA synthesis, and modulates G2 progression; controls the timing of entry into mitosis/meiosis by controlling the subsequent activation of cyclin B/CDK1 by phosphorylation, and coordinates the activation of cyclin B/CDK1 at the centrosome and in the nucleus. Crucial role in orchestrating a fine balance between cellular proliferation, cell death, and DNA repair in human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). Activity of CDK2 is maximal during S phase and G2; activated by interaction with cyclin E during the early stages of DNA synthesis to permit G1-S transition, and subsequently activated by cyclin A2 (cyclin A1 in germ cells) during the late stages of DNA replication to drive the transition from S phase to mitosis, the G2 phase. EZH2 phosphorylation promotes H3K27me3 maintenance and epigenetic gene silencing. Phosphorylates CABLES1 (By similarity). Cyclin E/CDK2 prevents oxidative stress-mediated Ras-induced senescence by phosphorylating MYC. Involved in G1-S phase DNA damage checkpoint that prevents cells with damaged DNA from initiating mitosis; regulates homologous recombination-dependent repair by phosphorylating BRCA2, this phosphorylation is low in S phase when recombination is active, but increases as cells progress towards mitosis. In response to DNA damage, double-strand break repair by homologous recombination a reduction of CDK2-mediated BRCA2 phosphorylation. Phosphorylation of RB1 disturbs its interaction with E2F1. NPM1 phosphorylation by cyclin E/CDK2 promotes its dissociates from unduplicated centrosomes, thus initiating centrosome duplication. Cyclin E/CDK2-mediated phosphorylation of NPAT at G1-S transition and until prophase stimulates the NPAT-mediated activation of histone gene transcription during S phase. Required for vitamin D-mediated growth inhibition by being itself inactivated. Involved in the nitric oxide- (NO) mediated signaling in a nitrosylation/activation-dependent manner. USP37 is activated by phosphorylation and thus triggers G1-S transition. CTNNB1 phosphorylation regulates insulin internalization.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] Publication Abstract from PubMedCyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are key mediators of cell proliferation and have been a subject of oncology drug discovery efforts for over two decades. Several CDK and activator cyclin family members have been implicated in regulating the cell division cycle. While it is thought that there are canonical CDK-cyclin pairing preferences, the extent of selectivity is unclear, and increasing evidence suggests that the cell-cycle CDKs can be activated by a pool of available cyclins. The molecular details of CDK-cyclin specificity are not completely understood despite their importance for understanding cancer cell cycles and for pharmacological inhibition of cancer proliferation. We report here a biolayer interferometry assay that allows for facile quantification of CDK binding interactions with their cyclin activators. We applied this assay to measure the impact of Cdk2 inhibitors on Cyclin A (CycA) association and dissociation kinetics. We found that Type I inhibitors increase the affinity between Cdk2 and CycA by virtue of a slowed cyclin dissociation rate. In contrast, Type II inhibitors and other small-molecule Cdk2 binders have distinct effects on the CycA association and dissociation processes to decrease affinity. We propose that the differential impact of small molecules on the cyclin binding kinetics arises from the plasticity of the Cdk2 active site as the kinase transitions between active, intermediate, and inactive states.
