Background

Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) are a family of enzymes that govern the mammalian cell cycle (among other functions) and whose aberrant upregulation can lead to oncogenic effects. Consequently, proteins that negatively regulate CDKs, cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors (CDKNs), are strong candidate tumor suppressor genes. CDKNs fall into two families. The CDKN1 family contains ...
