Function

Potent tight-binding inhibitor of several G1 cyclin/CDK complexes (cyclin E-CDK2, cyclin D2-CDK4, and cyclin A-CDK2) and, to lesser extent, of the mitotic cyclin B-CDC2. Negative regulator of cell proliferation. May play a role in maintenance of the non-proliferative state throughout life.

Activity summary

The protein p57^Kip2 also known as CDKN1C plays an important role as a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor aligning closely with proteins like p21 and p27. It weighs approximately 57 kiloDaltons. P57^Kip2's expression occurs in various tissues including the placenta muscle brain and kidney. This widespread expression suggests a multitiered function in different tissues. Researchers use p57 immunostain techniques to confirm its presence in tissues.

Biological function summary

P57^Kip2 acts as a regulator of cell cycle progression. It binds directly to cyclin-CDK complexes stopping cell cycle transition from G1 to S phase. This action prevents unregulated cell division and contributes to cellular differentiation. p57^Kip2 forms part of larger protein complexes further influencing various cellular processes. Its activity is important for embryonic development where it controls cell proliferation rates.

Pathways

P57^Kip2 integrates into pathways controlling cell cycle checkpoints and apoptosis. It interacts with proteins like cyclin D and E and the retinoblastoma protein (Rb) within the cell cycle regulation pathway. Additionally its presence in growth signaling pathways intersects with TGF-beta signaling. These pathways hold significant influence over development and cellular responses to DNA damage.

Associated diseases and disorders

Abnormal expression of p57^Kip2 connects with cancers and growth disorders. Loss of function or downregulation often links to overgrowth syndromes like Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome. Conversely reduced expression levels associate with cancer proliferation particularly in cases such as Wilms' tumor. This association intertwines with mutations in genes like IGF2 and H19 which are critical in these conditions.
