GlossaryCyclin E

protein regulating cell cycle progression and DNA replication

Cyclin E is a protein that plays a crucial role in cell division. It helps regulate the cell cycle by partnering with another protein called CDK2 to ensure that cells replicate their DNA correctly before dividing. This process is essential for normal growth and tissue repair, but when Cyclin E is not properly controlled, it can lead to uncontrolled cell growth, which is a hallmark of cancer.
