Dependence of Cyclin E-CDK2 Kinase Activity on Cell Anchorage

Abstract: Most nonmalignant cells are anchorage-dependent; they require substrate attachment for growth and, in some instances, survival. This requirement is lost on oncogenic transformation. The cyclin E-CDK2 complex, which is required for the G1-S transition of the cell cycle, was activated in late G1 phase in attached human fibroblasts, but not in fibroblasts maintained in suspension. In transformed fibroblasts the complex was active regardless of attachment. The lack of cyclin E-CDK2 activity in suspended cells appe… Show more

“…Also, normal cells maintained in low serum (Firpo et al, 1994) or in suspension (Guadagno et al, 1993;Fang et al, 1996) do not express cyclin A and cannot progress into S-phase. Constitutive expression of cyclin A, but not cyclins D1 or E, allows NRK ®broblasts to proliferate in suspension (Guadagno et al, 1993), while induction of cyclin A expression can promote premature entry into S-phase of ®broblasts made quiescent by serum withdrawal (Resnitzky et al, Figure 2 Cells expressing wild-type E8 are capable of anchorageindependent growth in soft agar culture.…”

“…Integrins cooperate with RTKs to stimulate cyclin D1 expression and to suppress cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor (cki) levels. In doing so, integrins support the cyclin Ecdk2 activity that drives S-phase entry [31,32]. The enhanced and sustained Erk activity in adherent cells (see above) explains in part the supportive role of integrins in cyclin D1 transcription [16,33].…”

“…The surprising temporary exit from the cell cycle following v-Src inactivation in the presence of serum growth factors may re¯ect another inhibitory environment. Cells transformed by v-Src display altered cell adhesions and cytoskeleton, possibly comparable in e ect to anchorage deprivation (Fang et al, 1996). While v-Src may allow cells in this state to continue cycling, in normal cells anchorage deprivation would be growth inhibitory.…”
