Supplementary information

This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

The p21 protein also known as CDKN1A is an important regulator of cell cycle progression. It acts as a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor where it binds to and inhibits the activity of cyclin-CDK2 or -CDK4 complexes. The molecular weight of p21 is approximately 21 kDa. Cellular expression of p21 is diverse; it occurs in various tissues reflecting its broad role in maintaining cell cycle control. This protein's expression level is often assessed using techniques such as p21 western blotting p21 ELISA and p21 IHC staining.
Biological function summary

P21 plays a critical role in cell cycle regulation and DNA damage response. It associates with the p53 tumor suppressor protein forming an essential part of the p53 signaling pathway under stress conditions. p21 arrests cells in G1 phase allowing DNA repair or leading to cellular senescence. Through these mechanisms p21 integrates signals from stress and damage emphasizing its importance as a mediator in cellular checkpoint control.

Pathways

P21 is closely involved in the p53 and the Transforming Growth Factor-beta (TGF-β) signaling pathways. This integration helps in transmitting growth-inhibitory signals. p21 interacts with proteins such as p53 and cyclins ensuring precise regulation of the cell cycle and growth arrest when necessary. Triggered by p53 activation p21 contributes to preventing undisturbed cell proliferation acting as a safeguard against tumor formation.

P21's deregulation associates with cancer and age-related diseases. Its impairment is a common feature in many cancers often linked with defects in the p53 pathway. Reduced p21 expression can contribute to unchecked cell division and tumor progression. Moreover in age-related diseases p21's role in promoting cellular senescence connects it with degenerative conditions. The intricate relationship between p21 and proteins such as p53 and cyclins highlights its potential as a therapeutic target for these disorders.

Binds to and inhibits cyclin-dependent kinase activity, preventing phosphorylation of critical cyclin-dependent kinase substrates and blocking cell cycle progression. Functions in the nuclear localization and assembly of cyclin D-CDK4 complex and promotes its kinase activity towards RB1. At higher stoichiometric ratios, inhibits the kinase activity of the cyclin D-CDK4 complex (PubMed : 25329316). Inhibits DNA synthesis by DNA polymerase delta by competing with POLD3 for PCNA binding (By similarity).

Binds to and inhibits cyclin-dependent kinase activity, preventing phosphorylation of critical cyclin-dependent kinase substrates and blocking cell cycle progression. Functions in the nuclear localization and assembly of cyclin D-CDK4 complex and promotes its kinase activity towards RB1. At higher stoichiometric ratios, inhibits the kinase activity of the cyclin D-CDK4 complex (PubMed : 25329316). Inhibits DNA synthesis by DNA polymerase delta by competing with POLD3 for PCNA binding (By similarity). Negatively regulates the CDK4- and CDK6-driven phosphorylation of RB1 in keratinocytes, thereby resulting in the release of E2F1 and subsequent transcription of E2F1-driven G1/S phase promoting genes (PubMed : 36689330).
