Phosphorylates CTNNB1, USP37, p53/TP53, NPM1, CDK7, RB1, BRCA2, MYC, NPAT, EZH2. Interacts with cyclins A, B1, B3, D, or E. Triggers duplication of centrosomes and DNA. Acts at the G1-S transition to promote the E2F transcriptional program and the initiation of DNA synthesis, and modulates G2 progression; controls the timing of entry into mitosis/meiosis by controlling the subsequent activation of cyclin B/CDK1 by phosphorylation, and coordinates the activation of cyclin B/CDK1 at the centrosome and in the nucleus. Crucial role in orchestrating a fine balance between cellular proliferation, cell death, and DNA repair in human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). Activity of CDK2 is maximal during S phase and G2; activated by interaction with cyclin E during the early stages of DNA synthesis to permit G1-S transition, and subsequently activated by cyclin A2 (cyclin A1 in germ cells) during the late stages of DNA replication to drive the transition from S phase to mitosis, the G2 phase. EZH2 phosphorylation promotes H3K27me3 maintenance and epigenetic gene silencing. Phosphorylates CABLES1 (By similarity). Cyclin E/CDK2 prevents oxidative stress-mediated Ras-induced senescence by phosphorylating MYC. Involved in G1-S phase DNA damage checkpoint that prevents cells with damaged DNA from initiating mitosis; regulates homologous recombination-dependent repair by phosphorylating BRCA2, this phosphorylation is low in S phase when recombination is active, but increases as cells progress towards mitosis. In response to DNA damage, double-strand break repair by homologous recombination a reduction of CDK2-mediated BRCA2 phosphorylation. Phosphorylation of RB1 disturbs its interaction with E2F1. NPM1 phosphorylation by cyclin E/CDK2 promotes its dissociates from unduplicated centrosomes, thus initiating centrosome duplication. Cyclin E/CDK2-mediated phosphorylation of NPAT at G1-S transition and until prophase stimulates the NPAT-mediated activation of histone gene transcription during S phase. Required for vitamin D-mediated growth inhibition by being itself inactivated. Involved in the nitric oxide- (NO) mediated signaling in a nitrosylation/activation-dependent manner. USP37 is activated by phosphorylation and thus triggers G1-S transition. CTNNB1 phosphorylation regulates insulin internalization. Publication Abstract from PubMed Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) regulate cell cycle progression and transcription. CDK7 plays a pivotal role in cell division and proliferation, and the CDK7 gene often exhibits mutations or copy number loss in cancer. Pharmacological targeting of CDK7 has been proposed as a cancer treatment strategy and several inhibitors are currently in clinical trials. As opposed to CDK2, the use of structure-assisted drug design for CDK7 has been limited. We present here CDK2m7, a CDK2-based CDK7 mimic created by mutagenesis of the CDK2 active site pocket. CDK2m7 can be produced in E. coli in a fully active complex with cyclin A2 in high yield and purity. CDK2m7 exhibits a shift in inhibitor selectivity from CDK2 to CDK7 and readily crystallizes. Therefore, it can be used in structure-assisted design of CDK7 inhibitors, as demonstrated by the crystal structure of the complex with inhibitor SY5609. CDK2m7 thus represents a simple and affordable platform for CDK7 rational drug development.
