| DesignNote |
Survivin is an apoptosis inhibitor that is expressed during the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. It is abundantly expressed in various human cancers but undetectable in normal differentiated tissues. Survivin associates with the microtubules of the mitotic spindle and any disruption results in the loss of apoptosis activity. It is physically associated with cyclin-dependent kinase p34(cdc2) on the mitotic apparatus, and is phosphorylated on Thr(34) by p34(cdc2)-cyclin B1 in vitro and in vivo. Therefore, survivin phosphorylation on Thr(34) may be required to preserve cell viability at cell division. Manipulation of this pathway may facilitate the elimination of cancer cells at mitosis.
