p2lMIAFlICIPlISDIl is an important cell-cycle mediator with tumor suppressor gene capabilities, and its inactivation could potentially lead to tumor progression. Because tumor suppressor genes are commonly inactivated by somatic and germline mutations, we analyzed a variety of human tumor cell lines
## Abstract __SDI1__ is an inhibitor of DNA synthesis that we isolated by expression screening cDNAs prepared from senescent, terminally nondividing human cells. Other groups then cloned this gene as a cyclinβdependent kinase (cdk)βinteracting protein (CIP1, p21) that inhibits cdks; the gene was al
Many tumour therapies act by inducing a cellular damage response pathway mediated by the tumour suppressor protein p53. Alternative outcomes of p53 induction include apoptosis or transient cell-cycle arrest, both thought to require the transcriptional activity of wild-type p53. Current research high
WAF1/Cip1/Sdi1 (p21) is the prototype of a family of proteins that inhibit cyclin-dependent kinases and regulate cell cycle progression in eukaryotic cells. In addition to normal cell cycle progression, p21 is involved in growth suppression mediated by p53 and transforming growth factor beta (TGFbet
