MeSH definition : Phosphoprotein with protein kinase activity that functions in the G2/M phase transition
of the CELL CYCLE. It is the catalytic subunit of the MATURATION-PROMOTING FACTOR
and complexes with both CYCLIN A and CYCLIN B in mammalian cells. The maximal activity
of cyclin-dependent kinase 1 is achieved when it is fully dephosphorylated.;
MeSH synonym : cdc2 protein; cdk1 protein kinase; protein kinase, cdc2; cyclin-dependent kinase 1; cyclin dependent kinase 1; protein kinase, cdk1; cdk1 kinase;
