CycD1, a Putative G1 Cyclin from Antirrhinum majus, Accelerates the Cell Cycle in Cultured Tobacco BY-2 Cells by Enhancing Both G1/S Entry and Progression through S and G2 Phases

A putative G1 cyclin gene, Antma;CycD1;1 (CycD1), from Antirrhinum majus is known to be expressed throughout the cell cycle in the meristem and other actively proliferating cells. To test its role in ...

Phosphorylation of Retinoblastoma-Related Protein by the Cyclin D/Cyclin-Dependent Kinase Complex Is Activated at the G1/S-Phase Transition in Tobacco

In mammals, D-type cyclin-associated kinases mainly regulate the G1/S transition by phosphorylating the retinoblastoma (Rb) protein. We previously demonstrated that in tobacco, cyclin D (Nicta; ...
