1 We previously reported that the prostacyclin mimetic, cicaprost, selectively inhibits cyclin E-cyclin-dependent kinase-2 (Cdk2), and now we show that it acts by regulating the expression of Skp2, the F-box protein that targets p27(Kip1) for ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis. cicaprost cyclin dependent kinase 2 Homo sapiens
2 First, we show that cicaprost prevents the late G(1) phase down-regulation of p27(Kip1) and that the inhibitory effect of cicaprost on cyclin E-Cdk2 activity and S phase entry is eliminated by deleting p27(Kip1). cicaprost cyclin dependent kinase 2 Homo sapiens
