p21<sup>Cip1/WAF1</sup>mediates cyclin B1 degradation in response to DNA damage
Bibliographic record
Abstract
p21(Cip1/WAF1) is the principle mediator of cell cycle arrest in response to DNA damage. p21 primarily mediates G(1) cell cycle arrest by inactivating G(1)-associated cyclin A- and cyclin E-containing cyclin/cdk complexes. In the present study we investigate the role of p21 in DNA damage-induced G(2) cell cycle arrest, particularly with respect to the G(2)-associated cyclin, cyclin B1. We demonstrate that cells lacking p21 or deficient in their ability to upregulate p21 are unable to mediate the downregulation of cyclin B1 in response to DNA damage as compared to wild-type cells. Decreased levels of cyclin B1 in response to DNA damage seen in wild-type cells is due to p21-mediated degradation of cyclin B1 as this can be inhibited by a proteasomal inhibitor. Cell cycle analysis reveals that p21-null cells are unable sustain G(2) cell cycle arrest and accumulate at greater than 4N DNA content. These results indicate that p21-mediated degradation of cyclin B1 in response to DNA damage is necessary for the maintenance of G(2) cell cycle arrest.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
