Abstract:blurb: Myc antagonizes p27 activity in cancer. Myc activates Cdk1 to phosphorylate p27, marking p27 for degradation. This depends on Myc-mediated cyclin A and B induction. Cdk1 inhibition is sufficient for a synthetic lethal interaction with Myc Running Title: Myc activates Cdk1 to phosphorylate p27 ABSTRACT Cell cycle stimulation is a major transforming mechanism of Myc oncoprotein. This is achieved through at least three concomitant mechanisms: upregulation of cyclins and Cdks, downregulation of Cdk inhibito… Show more
