CDC2 — Daucus carota subsp. sativus

Summary

DCAR_023529 (CDC2) on carrot chromosome 7 encodes a protein with a CDK domain, Myb domain, protein kinase domain, and serine/threonine kinase active site, and is annotated with cyclin binding, RNA polymerase II CTD heptapeptide repeat kinase activity, CDK activity, protein serine kinase activity, protein serine/threonine kinase activity, DNA binding, DNA binding transcription factor activity, ATP binding, and protein binding. It is associated with dedifferentiation, interphase, S phase, meiotic cell cycle modulation, mitotic G2/M transition, regulation of mitotic entry, mitosis, G1/S transition of mitotic cell cycle, regulation of gene expression, cell cycle, cell division, regulation of DNA-templated transcription, signal transduction, and biological process. The protein localizes to the NRD complex, CDK holoenzyme, mitochondria, cytoplasm, and nucleus. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to leaflet number, leaf shape, and cytokinin sensitivity.
