G0 phaseDISPLAYTITLE:G0 phase The G0 phase describes a cellular state outside of the replicative cell cycle. Classically, cells were thought to enter G0 primarily due to environmental factors, like nutrient deprivation, that limited the resources necessary for proliferation. Thus it was thought of as a resting phase. G0 is now known to take different forms and occur for multiple reasons. For example, most adult neuronal cells, among the most metabolically active cells in the body, are fully differentiated and reside in a terminal G0 phase.
Cyclines (protéines)thumb|Expression des cyclines au cours du cycle cellulaire. Les cyclines sont une famille de plusieurs protéines impliquées dans la régulation du cycle cellulaire. Au moment d'agir pendant le cycle cellulaire d'une jeune cellule, les cyclines sont produites et interagissent avec leurs protéines kinases cycline-dépendantes (Cdk) spécifiques afin de les activer en formant des facteurs de promotion de la maturation, ce qui déclenchera la progression de la cellule vers l'interphase.
Restriction pointThe restriction point (R), also known as the Start or G1/S checkpoint, is a cell cycle checkpoint in the G1 phase of the animal cell cycle at which the cell becomes "committed" to the cell cycle, and after which extracellular signals are no longer required to stimulate proliferation. The defining biochemical feature of the restriction point is the activation of G1/S- and S-phase cyclin-CDK complexes, which in turn phosphorylate proteins that initiate DNA replication, centrosome duplication, and other early cell cycle events.
Facteur de transcriptionvignette|upright=2.2|Schéma simplifié du mécanisme d'un activateur. Un facteur de transcription est une protéine nécessaire à l'initiation ou à la régulation de la transcription d'un gène dans l'ensemble du vivant (procaryote ou eucaryote). Elle interagit avec l'ADN et l'ARN-polymérase. Il existe une classification complexe des facteurs de transcription. Les facteurs généraux de la transcription, impliqués dans la composition de la machinerie transcriptionnelle basale organisée autour de l'ARN polymérase II.
Cyclin-dependent kinase 1Cyclin-dependent kinase 1 also known as CDK1 or cell division cycle protein 2 homolog is a highly conserved protein that functions as a serine/threonine protein kinase, and is a key player in cell cycle regulation. It has been highly studied in the budding yeast S. cerevisiae, and the fission yeast S. pombe, where it is encoded by genes cdc28 and cdc2, respectively. With its cyclin partners, Cdk1 forms complexes that phosphorylate a variety of target substrates (over 75 have been identified in budding yeast); phosphorylation of these proteins leads to cell cycle progression.
Cyclin-dependent kinase 7Cyclin-dependent kinase 7, or cell division protein kinase 7, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the CDK7 gene. 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 protein forms a trimeric complex with cyclin H and MAT1, which functions as a Cdk-activating kinase (CAK).
Division cellulairethumb|upright=1.2| Schémas des différents types de divisions cellulaires. La division cellulaire est le mode de multiplication de toute cellule. Elle lui permet de se diviser en plusieurs cellules (deux le plus souvent). C'est donc un processus fondamental dans le monde vivant, puisqu'il est nécessaire à la régénération de tout organisme. Chez les Eucaryotes — caractérisés principalement par des cellules qui possèdent un noyau — il y a deux types de division cellulaire : La mitose qui n'autorise qu'une multiplication asexuée; elle permet la régénération d'un organe, et aussi la croissance.

Cyclin-dependent kinase 2Cyclin-dependent kinase 2, also known as cell division protein kinase 2, or Cdk2, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the CDK2 gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the cyclin-dependent kinase family of Ser/Thr protein kinases. This protein kinase is highly similar to the gene products of S. cerevisiae cdc28, and S. pombe cdc2, also known as Cdk1 in humans. It is a catalytic subunit of the cyclin-dependent kinase complex, whose activity is restricted to the G1-S phase of the cell cycle, where cells make proteins necessary for mitosis and replicate their DNA.
CDK4La CDK4 est une kinase dépendante des cyclines. Son gène est le CDK4 situé sur le chromosome 12 humain. Le complexe Cdk4-cycline D phosphoryle la pRB, engendrant un changement conformationnel la rendant inactif, libérant E2F et permettant à la cellule de progresser dans le cycle cellulaire. Cette protéine joue un rôle dans la prolifération cellulaire, notamment dans les cancers, constituant une cible thérapeutique. Le palbociclib et le ribociclib sont des inhibiteurs des CDK4 et CDK6 efficaces dans certains cancers du sein.
Cyclin-dependent kinase 6Cell division protein kinase 6 (CDK6) is an enzyme encoded by the CDK6 gene. It is regulated by cyclins, more specifically by Cyclin D proteins and Cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor proteins. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the cyclin-dependent kinase, (CDK) family, which includes CDK4. 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 in the point of regulation named R or restriction point.
