General description

Cyclin dependent kinase 6 (CDK6) is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 7q21.2. The encoded protein is ubiquitously expressed and is a member of CDK family.
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the cyclin-dependent protein kinase (CDK) family. CDK family members are highly similar to the gene products of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cdc28, and Schizosaccharomyces pombe cdc2, and are known to be important regulators of cell cycle progression. This kinase is a catalytic subunit of the protein kinase complex that is important for cell cycle G1 phase progression and G1/S transition. The activity of this kinase first appears in mid-G1 phase, which is controlled by the regulatory subunits including D-type cyclins and members of INK4 family of CDK inhibitors. This kinase, as well as CDK4, has been shown to phosphorylate, and thus regulate the activity of, tumor suppressor protein Rb. (provided by RefSeq)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cyclin dependent kinase 6 (CDK6) plays a vital role in regulation of cell‐cycle and thus, it is considered as a potent therapeutic target for cancers.The protein expressed in human hematopoietic stem cells (HSC), modulates quiescence exit. Elevated expression of the gene has been observed in various types of cancers such as leukemia and lymphomas.
