Screening For Small Molecule Inhibitors Of p27Kip1 Degradation

In a majority of human cancers, the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor p27Kip1 is commonly found to be deregulated due to proteolysis by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway involving the SCFSkp2 E3 ligase. Although proteasome inhibitors act to stabilize p27Kip1, small molecules agents inhibiting t...
