Myc stimulates cell cycle progression through the activation of Cdk1 and phosphorylation of p27
J. Leon, L. Garcia-Gutierrez, G. Bretones…·D. Santamaria
The paper shows Myc activates Cdk1 to phosphorylate p27 at Thr187, promoting its degradation and cell cycle progression, with Cdk1 inhibition causing synthetic lethality with Myc.
