CDKN1C cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 1C

Gene ID: 1028, updated on 11-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: BWS; WBS; p57; BWCR; KIP2; p57Kip2

Summary

This gene is imprinted, with preferential expression of the maternal allele. The encoded protein is a tight-binding, strong inhibitor of several G1 cyclin/Cdk complexes and a negative regulator of cell proliferation. Mutations in this gene are implicated in sporadic cancers and Beckwith-Wiedemann syndorome, suggesting that this gene is a tumor suppressor candidate. Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]
