Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

CDK1 is the master mitotic kinase: it acquires protein kinase activity only upon binding a cyclin partner (cyclin B/MPF or cyclin A), and the active complex phosphorylates hundreds of substrates to drive entry into and progression through M phase (PMID:12045216, PMID:14593728). Its activity is gated by inhibitory T-loop and Y15/T14 phosphorylation imposed by Wee1/MYT1, removed by CDC25, and CDK1 feeds back onto its own inhibitor by both activating and then inactivating Wee1/Swe1, building the switch-like bistability of mitotic onset (PMID:16096060, PMID:15589158, PMID:23146904, PMID:30008317); CDK-activating kinase phosphorylation of the T-loop and the accessory subunit CKS1 are required for full activity and for processive multisite substrate phosphorylation, including at non-proline-directed sites (PMID:36840943, PMID:34791727). Once active, CDK1 orchestrates the structural reorganizations of mitosis—chromosome condensation through multisite phosphorylation of the condensin subunit Smc4 (PMID:25691469), sister-chromatid cohesion release via Sororin phosphorylation (PMID:23901111, PMID:21878504), nuclear envelope breakdown through importin-α1 and CHMP7 phosphorylation (PMID:34286694, PMID:31434716), and kinetochore-microtubule attachment and spindle checkpoint signaling by priming PLK1 docking sites on BUB1/CENP-U and CLASP2, phosphorylating MPS1 at S281, localizing to unattached kinetochores via MAD1, and tuning Dam1/Nsk1 attachments (PMID:33248027, PMID:30674582, PMID:30674583, PMID:23045552, PMID:32946748, PMID:22065639). CDK1 also sets the timing of mitotic exit: its inactivation is required for anaphase spindle dynamics, cytokinesis, APC/C-Cdh1 activation, and the RepoMan/PP2A phosphatase switches that reverse mitotic phosphorylation (PMID:9230080, PMID:26674376, PMID:32900880, PMID:10694434). Beyond the canonical cell-cycle program, CDK1 phosphorylates substrates that sustain cap-dependent and 5'TOP-mRNA translation (4E-BP1, LARP1) (PMID:25883264, PMID:32040547), suppress innate immune sensing of self-DNA during mitosis (cGAS) (PMID:32351706), control DNA-repair pathway choice and recombination intermediate resolution (WRN, Mus81-Mms4) (PMID:23531881, PMID:27634057), drive mitotic autophagy (ULK1-ATG13) (PMID:32516310), and boost mitochondrial bioenergetics and fission (complex I subunits, SIRT3, Drp1) (PMID:26141949, PMID:26670043). In cancer contexts CDK1 phosphorylation reprograms transcription factors and deubiquitinases (Sox2, TFCP2L1, USP9X, USP29) and directs E3-ligase-dependent degradation of multiple targets (kindlin, ACSL4, pVHL), and CDK1 itself is stabilized by deubiquitinases to support tumor proliferation (PMID:31709755, PMID:35469017, PMID:32152317, PMID:37428466, PMID:36782089, PMID:36813923, PMID:37667382).

2012 CDK1 phosphorylates MYT1 inhibitory kinase contributes context: MYT1 (not WEE1) has a rate-determining role in checkpoint recovery — depletion of MYT1 causes precocious mitotic entry when checkpoint is abrogated by CHK1 or WEE1 inhibitors, by lowering the threshold for CDK1 activation. MYT1 siRNA depletion, CHK1/WEE1 inhibitor treatment, time-lapse microscopy, clonogenic survival, xenograft Oncogene Medium 23146904

Proteome-wide phosphorylation screen, in vitro kinase assay, ubiquitination/deubiquitination assays, WT1 transcription assays Nature communications High 32152317
2021 USP7 interacts with PP2A and supports active PP2A localization in the cytoplasm; inhibition of USP7 leads to widespread CDK1 activation throughout the cell cycle, producing CDK1 target phosphorylation and DNA damage; toxicity is alleviated by lowering CDK1 activity or activating PP2A.

2022 A fraction of CDK1 bound to spindle structures is maintained in an inhibited (phosphorylated) state by Wee1 even in mitosis; this 'compartmentalized' inactive CDK1 (i-Cdk1) is required for spindle assembly, as loss of i-Cdk1 inhibits spindle assembly and its restoration promotes it.

2022 Nuclear-cytoplasmic compartmentalization of cyclin B1-CDK1 modulates cell cycle clock properties: in nucleus-present cells, CDK1 frequency remains constant against cyclin B1 variations (robust mitotic phase duration), and active cyclin B1-CDK1 accumulates in nuclei without delay until nuclear envelope breakdown triggers anaphase.

2021 Reconstituted ternary CDK1:Cyclin-B:CKS1 complex is more active than binary CDK1:Cyclin-B; CDK1 kinase activity requires T-loop phosphorylation by CDK-activating kinase (CAK); CKS1 boosts CDK1 processivity for multisite substrate phosphorylation.
