| Abstract | Senescent human diploid fibroblasts are unable to enter S phase in response to mitogenic stimulation. One of the key deficiencies in mitogen-stimulated senescent cells is their failure to phosphorylate the retinoblastoma protein, which acts as an inhibitor of entry into S phase in its unphosphorylated form. Recent data suggest that cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks) regulated by G1 cyclins (D type and E) are responsible for the primary phosphorylation of the retinoblastoma protein prior to the G1/S boundary. Surprisingly, we found 10- to 15-fold higher constitutive amounts of both cyclin E and cyclin D1 in senescent cells compared to quiescent early-passage cells. Nevertheless, cyclin E-associated kinase activity in senescent cells was very low and did not increase significantly upon mitogenic stimulation even though cyclin E-Cdk2 complexes were abundant. In contrast to early-passage cells in late G1 phase, senescent cells contained mainly underphosphorylated cyclin E and proportionally more unphosphorylated and inactive Cdk2, perhaps accounting for the low kinase activity. We also show that a majority of the Cdk2 in senescent cells, but not in early-passage cells, was complexed with cyclin D1. Cyclin D1-Cdk2 complexes, severalfold enriched in senescent cells, contained exclusively unphosphorylated Cdk2. Amounts of cyclin A, which ordinarily accumulates in S and G2 phases, were extremely low in stimulated senescent cells. We suggest that the failure to activate cyclin E-Cdk2 kinase activity in senescent cells may account for the inability of these cells to phosphorylate the retinoblastoma protein in late G1 phase, which in turn may block the expression of late G1 genes such as cyclin A that are required for entry into S phase. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
