What role do Cyclins and CDKs play in the cell cycle?

SouravSeptember 2, 2024

Answer

Cyclins and Cyclin-Dependent Kinases (CDKs) regulate the cell cycle. Cyclins activate CDKs, which then phosphorylate target proteins to drive the cell through different phases of the cell cycle. Their interactions ensure proper timing and order of cell cycle events.
