products description :
Background:. Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are activated in part by forming complexes with cyclins. For example, CDK4 and CDK6 associate with the D-type cyclins ,md phosphorylate the retinoblastoma protein. This phosphorylation is a necessary event for cells to enter S-phase. The inhibitors of CDK4 (INK4) family include p151NK4B, p16 INK4A, p181NK4C and p19INK4D. p18 has been shown to function as a aploinsufficient tumor suppressor in vivo. All INK4 proteins are composed of 32 amino acid ankyrin motifs and selectively inhibit CDK4/6 activity. Mutational analyses of p18 implicate the third and the aminoterminal portion of the fourth ankyrin repeat in mediating binding to CDK4/6. The interaction of INK4 family members can be a binary complex with CDK4/6 or ternary complex with cyclin D-bound CDK4/6 and ultimately results in the inhibition of cell cycle progression. The gene encoding p15INK4B is often silenced by hypermethylation in acute myeloid leukemia and deleted in acute lymphocytic leukemia.
