Ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis makes a major contribution to decreasing the levels of p27. Ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis of p27(kip1) is growth and cell cycle regulated in two ways: first, skp2, a component of the E3-ubiquitin ligase, is growth regulated, and second, a kinase must phosphorylate the threonine-187 position on p27 so that it can be recognized by skp2. In vitro, p27 is phosphorylated by cyclin E- and cyclin A-associated cdk2 as well as by cyclin B1-cdk1. Having analyzed the effect of different cyclin-cyclin-dependent kinase complexes on ubiquitination of p27 in a reconstitution assay system, we now report a noncatalytic requirement for cyclin A-cdk2. Multiparameter flow cytometric analysis also indicates that p27 turnover correlates best with the onset of S phase, once the levels of cyclin A become nearly maximal. Finally, increasing the amount of both cyclin E-cdk2 and skp2 was less efficient at promoting p27 ubiquitination than was increasing the amount of cyclin A-cdk2 alone in extracts prepared from cultures of &gt;93%-purified G(1) cells. Together these lines of evidence suggest that cyclin A-cdk2 plays an ancillary noncatalytic role in the ubiquitination of p27 by the SCF(skp2) complex.
