"Phosphorylated by cdk6 and cdk4, and subsequently by cdk2 at ser-567 in g1, thereby releasing e2f1 which is then able to activate cell growth. Here we show that although these cdks phosphorylate multiple residues in prb, they do so with different residue selectivities in vitro;thr821 and thr826 are preferentially phosphorylated by cdk6 and cdk4, respectively."

"The CKIs, p16, p15, p18 and p19, inhibit the activity of the CDKs CDK4 and CDK6, thereby preventing phopsphorylation of Rb, and G1 to S phase transition, and a mouse with a Cdk4 point mutation (Arg24Cys) that resulted in insensitivity to the CKIs, developed tumours of the pituitary, pancreas and testes."

"Levels of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors (CDKIs) p18, p21 and p27 were shown to be increased in all treated RMS cell lines but no CDK4 inhibition or hypophosphorylation of the Rb protein suggesting that ATRA-induced differentiation was not sufficient to induce cell cycle arrest in RMS cells."

"To investigate the requirement for p53 and Rb activity in senescence-associated OPN regulation, we ectopically expressed a well-characterized dominant negative p53 cDNA (p53-DD) ( xref ) or a cDNA expressing a fusion protein consisting of a mutant form of cyclin dependent kinase 4 R24C (Cdk4) and cyclin D1 (DK) that inhibits Rb ( xref ) ( xref )."

"p14 ARF mediates growth arrest by stabilizing the tumor suppressor p53 [ xref ], whereas p16 induces cellular senescence by preventing the inactivation of the retinoblastoma protein (pRB) by the cyclin dependent kinases cdk4 and cdk6 [ xref , xref ], a step otherwise required for cell cycle progression."

"Thus, the dual role of Rb in regulating cell proliferation and differentiation is mediated by its phosphorylation status. xref Both cyclin D1-CDK4 and cyclin E-CDK2 phosphorylate Rb during the G1/S cell cycle progression, and cyclin D1-CDK4 specifically phosphorylates Rb at Serine 780 in vitro in human fibroblasts. xref We previously reported that sepsis inhibits cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21 expression due to increases in the NFI-A protein. xref P21 inhibits the cyclin D1-CDK4 protein complex, which facilitates cell cycle arrest and promotes cell differentiation. xref , xref In this study, knockdown of cyclin D1 or CDK4 in sepsis Gr1 + CD11b + cells inhibited Rb phosphorylation at Serine 780 ( xref ), Rb knockdown displaced C/EBPβ from the miR promoters and simultaneously induced C/EBPα binding ( xref ) and abolished the miR promoter-driven reporter gene expression ( xref )."

"Despite the traditional association of senescence with the G0 phase, one known mechanism of senescence begins with the tumor suppressor p16 Ink4a (CDKN2A), which inhibits Rb inactivation by CDK4 and CDK6, leading to failure to transition from G1 phase into S phase [ xref , xref ]."
