Background Information

Cyclin-dependent kinase 6 (CDK6) is an enzyme belonging to the CDK family. CDK6 is a catalytic subunit of a 

protein kinase complex that is essential for progression through the G1 phase of the cell cycle and G1/S transition, 

thus activating cell proliferation. CDK6 partners with cyclins to phosphorylate the retinoblastoma (pRb) protein to 

release its binding partner E2F; a transcription factor that drives gene expression necessary for DNA replication 

(PMID: 8114739). CDK6 was long thought of as a redundant homolog of CDK4 as they perform similar roles in cell 

cycle progression. But recently it has become apparent that CDK6 and CDK4 differ in tissue-specific functions, 

where CDK6 plays a role in differentiation (PMID: 16410727) but also in contribution to tumor development.


What is the molecular weight of CDK6?

The molecular weight of CDK6 is approximately 36-40 kDa (PMID: 23563707, 8114739).


What is the subcellular localization of CDK6?

CDK6 is ubiquitously expressed through the nucleus and cytoplasm. However, the most active complexes are 

located in the nuclei of proliferating cells.


What is the expression pattern of CDK6?

CDK6 activity first occurs midway through the G1 phase. Its expression is regulated by D-type cyclins and 

members of the INK4 family of CDK inhibitors (PMID: 7739547).


What is CDK6's role in cancer?

CDK6 is involved in a critical regulatory point in the cell cycle and so is found to be unbalanced in approximately 

80-90% of tumors (PMID: 23356980). Loss of cell cycle control is the initial step in the development of the 

hallmarks of cancer, such as sustained proliferative signaling and dysregulated cellular energetics. Deregulation 

of CDK6 has an important role in lymphoma by increasing angiogenesis (PMID: 23948297) and upregulated CDK6 

expression is also associated with a poor clinical prognosis in medulloblastoma (PMID: 23172372).
