Scientific Background: CDK5 is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the CMGC group and CDK family. It is required for cell cycle arrest in neuronal cells. It is activated by binding p35 protein. Phosphorylation at S159 increases phosphotransferase activity. Phosphorylation at T14 and Y15 inhibits phosphotransferase activity. CDK5 has been observed to be proline-directed and to phosphorylate SRC, NOS3, VIM/vimentin, p35/CDK5R1, MEF2A, SIPA1L1, SH3GLB1, PXN, PAK1, MCAM/MUC18, SEPT5, SYN1, DNM1, AMPH, SYNJ1, CDK16, RAC1, RHOA, CDC42, TONEBP/NFAT5, MAPT/TAU, MAP1B, histone H1, p53/TP53, HDAC1, APEX1, PTK2/FAK1, huntingtin/HTT, ATM, MAP2, NEFH and NEFM. CDK5 has been implicated in Aneurysmal bone cyst, which is a bone cancer that will affect bone, endothelial tissue, and bone marrow.
