Specifically phosphorylates and inactivates cyclin B1-complexed CDK1 reaching a maximum during G2 phase and a minimum as cells enter M phase. Phosphorylation of cyclin B1-CDK1 occurs exclusively on 'Tyr-15' and phosphorylation of monomeric CDK1 does not occur. Its activity increases during S and G2 phases and decreases at M phase when it is hyperphosphorylated. A correlated decrease in protein level occurs at M/G1 phase, probably due to its degradation.

Publication Abstract from PubMed A series of N-6 substituted 9-hydroxy-4-phenylpyrrolo[3,4-c]carbazole-1,3(2H,6H)-diones were prepared from N-substituted (5-methoxyphenyl)ethenylindoles. The target compounds were tested for their ability to inhibit the G2/M cell cycle checkpoint kinases, Wee1 and Chk1. Analogues with neutral or cationic N-6 side chains were potent dual inhibitors. Acidic side chains provided potent (average IC(50) 0.057 microM) and selective (average ratio 223-fold) Wee1 inhibition. Co-crystal structures of inhibitors bound to Wee1 show that the pyrrolo[3,4-c]carbazole scaffold binds in the ATP-binding site, with N-6 substituents involved in H-bonding to conserved water molecules. HT-29 cells treated with doxorubicin and then target compounds demonstrate an active Cdc2/cyclin B complex, inhibition of the doxorubicin-induced phosphorylation of tyrosine 15 of Cdc2 and abrogation of the G2 checkpoint.
