Gene Symbol
- Os12g0588800 <=> Orysa;CycD5;2
Function
- Cyclins, the known activators for activity of CDKs, play crucial roles for cell cycle progression in eukaryotes.[1][2]
- In plants, cyclin binding not only activates CDKs by inducing a configuration alteration at the catalytic sites, but also contributes to the subcellular localization and substrate specificity of the complex as well as regulation of protein stability.[1][2]
Evolution
- Phylogenetic analysis indicated that both Arabidopsis and rice shared eight types of cyclins, A-, B-, D-, H-, L-, SDS-, T- and P-type, whereas C- and J18-type cyclins were specific to Arabidopsis, and F-type cyclins, lacking clear homologues in Arabidopsis, were unique to rice.[1]
Knowledge extension
- Similar to animals and yeasts, cell proliferation in plants is mainly controlled by a family of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). The activity of CDKs is directly regulated by binding and activation of cyclins as well as other mechanisms that consist of protein phosphorylation/ dephosphorylation by specific kinases/phosphatases, proteolysis, CDK inhibitor protein (CKI) binding, etc.
- Cyclins were initially discovered in marine inverte-brates as proteins that accumulated at specific time points of the cell cycle and were subsequently degraded quickly.[1]
