3 Cdk2 Binds to Cyclin E, A, B Activity peaks in S phase Major target of p27 Phosphorylates Rb and other targets Can replace yeast Cdk1 Essential for DNA replication Inactivation arrest cells in G1 Cdk2 is important (essential?) regulator of S phase 7 Cyril Berthet Eiman Aleem Cdk2 -/- knockout mice Current Biology Cdk2 knockout mice are viable! Berthet C, Aleem E, Coppola V, Tessarollo L, Kaldis P (2003) Curr Biol 13(20): Ortega S et al. (2003) Nat Genet 35:

4 Atrophy in testis of Cdk2 -/- mice 3 weeks 11 weeks 11 weeks Cdk2 -/- Cdk2 +/+ H&E BrdU H&E 10 Absence of oocyte development in Cdk2 -/- mice H&E BrdU Cdk2 +/+ Cdk2 -/- 11 Expression of cell cycle regulators in mouse tissues 12 4

5 Kinase activity and Cdk/cyclin complexes in spleen extract 13 Growth defect in Cdk2 -/- mouse embryo fibroblasts 14 Cdk complexes and activity in mouse embryonic fibroblasts 15 5

6 Cdk2 -/- MEF analysis after starvation 16 Cdk activity in synchronized MEFs 17 Delayed immortalization in Cdk2 -/- MEFs 18 6

7 Summary Cdk2 is essential for meiosis but not mitosis Cdk2 -/- MEFs display growth defects Which genes/ proteins compensate Cdk2 function? 19 Cdk2 is not an essential gene in the mitotic cell cycle 20 The Retinoblastoma (Rb) protein pathway Cdk1, cyclin A, Cdc25, Cyclin E, Cdk6, etc. 21 7

12 Wild type Cdk2 -/- Cdk4 -/- Cdk1 expression is repressed in the absence of Cdk2 and Cdk4 34 Summary Cdk2 -/- Cdk4 -/- DKO die due to heart defects Rb is not phosphorylated and E2F mediated transcription is repressed Cdk2 and Cdk4 are essential genes, regulating the G1/S transition 35 Cdk2 and Cdk4 control the expression of Cdk1 through the Rb/E2F pathway 36 12

13 The p27 kip1 network TGFβ, Cell cycle exit (GO) Active kinase Ubiquitin mediated degradation 37 Eiman Aleem Cdk2 -/- p27 -/- double knockout mice Nature Cell Biology Cdk2 -/- mice vs. wt Smaller body size Sterility of both males and females None None None MEFs: lower proliferation, 4h delay in S phase entry p27 kip1-/- mice vs. wt Increased body size Female sterility, disordered estrus, impaired luteal cell differentiation Pituitary tumors Retinal dysplasia Thymic hyperplasia, increased T cell proliferation, hematopoietic progenitors MEFs: normal cell cycle kinetics 39 13

16 Cdk1 binds to p27 and cyclin E 46 Proliferation of mouse embryonic fibroblasts 47 Silencing of Cdk1 in Cdk2 -/- MEFs WT + shcdk1 WT Cdk2-/- + shcdk

17 Summary Cdk2 -/- p27 -/- P27 regulates Cdk2 and Cdk1 Cdk1 interacts with cyclin E and forms active complexes Cdk1/cyclin E complexes most likely promote S phase and compensate for Cdk2 49 Cdk1 binds to p27 and cyclin E Wild type S phase G2 M phase Cdk2 -/- p27 -/- Cdk1/cyclin E complexes can drive S phase 50 Cdk1 compensates for Cdk2 functions in S phase 51 17
