ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to the discovery in mammalian cells, particularly human cells, of a novel CDK-binding protein, referred to herein as "cdc37". As described herein, this protein functions to facilitate activation and accordingly finctions in the modulation of cell-cycle progression, and therefore ultimately of cell growth and differentiation. Moreover, binding data indicated that cdc37 may function coordinately with other cell-cycle regulatory proteins, such as of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs), src, p53 and erk kinases.
