During G1, the activity of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) is controlled by the CDK inhibitors (CKIs) CDKN1A (p21) and CDKN1B (p27), thereby preventing premature entry into S phase (see Guardavaccaro and Pagano, 2006). The efficient recognition and ubiquitination of p27 by the SCF (Skp2) complex requires the formation of a trimeric complex containing p27 and cyclin E/A:Cdk2.
