| Abstract | An important question in the cell cycle field is how cyclin-dependent kinases (cdks) target their substrates. We have studied the role of a conserved hydrophobic patch on the surface of cyclin A in substrate recognition by cyclin A-cdk2. This hydrophobic patch is approximately 35A away from the active site of cdk2 and contains the MRAIL sequence conserved among a number of mammalian cyclins. In the x-ray structure of cyclin A-cdk2-p27, this hydrophobic patch contacts the RNLFG sequence in p27 that is common to a number of substrates and inhibitors of mammalian cdks. We find that mutation of this hydrophobic patch on cyclin A eliminates binding to proteins containing RXL motifs without affecting binding to cdk2. This docking site is critical for cyclin A-cdk2 phosphorylation of substrates containing RXL motifs, but not for phosphorylation of histone H1. Impaired substrate binding by the cyclin is the cause of the defect in RXL substrate phosphorylation, because phosphorylation can be rescued by restoring a cyclin A-substrate interaction in a heterologous manner. In addition, the conserved hydrophobic patch is important for cyclin A function in cells, contributing to cyclin A's ability to drive cells out of the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Thus, we define a mechanism by which cyclins can recruit substrates to cdks, and our results support the notion that a high local concentration of substrate provided by a protein-protein interaction distant from the active site is critical for phosphorylation by cdks. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
