Proliferating cell nuclear antigen/cyclin is an interleukin 2-responsive gene. 1987

K S Moore, and K Sullivan, and E M Tan, and M B Prystowsky

Previously, we have shown that a protein designated p36 is synthesized at a high rate during interleukin 2-driven proliferation of a cloned T lymphocyte, L2. Biosynthesis of p36 increases 1000-fold during the initial mid-G1 phase of the cell cycle and remains high while the cells proliferate. In this report, we show that p36 has the same migration pattern by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis as proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)/cyclin and that antiserum to PCNA/cyclin selectively immunoprecipitates p36. In addition, by indirect immunofluorescence, PCNA/cyclin accumulates in the nucleus of interleukin 2-stimulated L2 cells during proliferation and is not detectable prior to the initial S phase or after proliferation ceases. These data indicate that PCNA/cyclin expression is induced by interleukin 2 and that PCNA/cyclin accumulation is closely associated with T lymphocyte proliferation.

D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008180 Lupus Erythematosus, Systemic A chronic, relapsing, inflammatory, and often febrile multisystemic disorder of connective tissue, characterized principally by involvement of the skin, joints, kidneys, and serosal membranes. It is of unknown etiology, but is thought to represent a failure of the regulatory mechanisms of the autoimmune system. The disease is marked by a wide range of system dysfunctions, an elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and the formation of LE cells in the blood or bone marrow.

D008213 Lymphocyte Activation Morphologic alteration of small B LYMPHOCYTES or T LYMPHOCYTES in culture into large blast-like cells able to synthesize DNA and RNA and to divide mitotically. It is induced by INTERLEUKINS; MITOGENS such as PHYTOHEMAGGLUTININS, and by specific ANTIGENS. It may also occur in vivo as in GRAFT REJECTION.
