Scientific Background :CDK4 is a member of the cyclin-dependent protein kinase family and is involved in the control of cell proliferation during the G1 phase of cell cycle. CDK4 forms a complex with the D-type cyclins and is inhibited by p16 (cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor-2). CDK4 can mediate phosphorylation of the C-terminal region of RB protein leading to an active transcriptional repression of E2F complex (1). CDC37 and HSP90 can preferentially associate with the fraction of CDK4 not bound to D-type cyclins. SMAD3 is a major physiologic substrate of the G1 cyclin-dependent kinases CDK4 and CDK2 (2).
