Cyclin-dependent kinase 1-cyclin B complex (CDK1-cyclin B complex)

Target
CDK1-cyclin B complex
Molecular classification
Protein complex, Kinase complex, Cyclin-dependent kinase complex
01

Overview

The cyclin-dependent kinase 1-cyclin B complex is a key regulator of the cell cycle, specifically controlling the transition from G2 phase to M phase (mitosis). It consists of CDK1, a serine/threonine kinase, and cyclin B, its regulatory subunit. The complex orchestrates essential mitotic events like chromosomal condensation, spindle formation, and nuclear envelope breakdown. Dysregulation of this complex can lead to uncontrolled cell proliferation and is implicated in cancer.

Other names
CDK1/Cyclin Bp34cdc2-cyclin BMPF (Maturation Promoting Factor)
02

Mechanism of action

CDK1 inhibitors block the kinase activity of the CDK1-cyclin B complex, preventing cell cycle progression and promoting cell death.
