Abstract:
p60 is a cellular protein that binds to the adenovirus E1A protein complex in virally infected or transformed human cells. In both infected and uninfected cells, p60 was found in a complex with the cdc2 protein kinase. Immune complexes containing p60 and cdc2 display a cell cycle-dependent histone H1 kinase activity that is most active in interphase. The previously described cdc2-p62/cyclin complex also acts as a histone H1 kinase but is maximally active in mitotic metaphase. The shift in the timing of activation of different cdc2-containing complexes suggests that each might play a distinct role in regulation of the cell cycle.
