pubmed:abstractText
We have previously shown that cyclin E can malignantly transform primary rat embryo fibroblasts in cooperation with constitutively active Ha-Ras. In addition, we demonstrated that high level cyclin E expression potentiates the development of methyl-nitroso-urea-induced T-cell lymphomas in mice. To further investigate the mechanism underlying cyclin E-mediated malignant transformation, we have performed a mutational analysis of cyclin E function. Here we show that cyclin E mutants defective to form an active kinase complex with Cdk2 are unable to drive cells from G(1) into S phase but can still malignantly transform rat embryo fibroblasts in cooperation with Ha-Ras. In addition, Cdk2 activation is not a prerequisite for the ability of cyclin E to rescue yeast triple cln mutations. We also find that the oncogenic properties of cyclin E did not entirely correspond with its ability to interact with the negative cell cycle regulator p27(Kip1) or the pocket protein p130. These findings suggest that the oncogenic activity of cyclin E does not exclusively rely on its ability as a positive regulator of G(1) progression. Rather, we propose that cyclin E harbors other functions, independent of Cdk2 activation and p27(Kip1) binding, that contribute significantly to its oncogenic activity.

pubmed:articleTitle
The oncogenic activity of cyclin E is not confined to Cdk2 activation alone but relies on several other, distinct functions of the protein.
