Induced Expression of p16INK4a Inhibits Both CDK4- and CDK2-Associated Kinase Activity by Reassortment of Cyclin-CDK-Inhibitor Complexes

To investigate the mode of action of the p16INK4a tumor suppressor protein, we have established U2-OS cells in which the expression of p16INK4a can be regulated by addition or removal of isopropyl-beta -D-thiogalactopyranoside. As expected, induction of p16INK4a results in a G1 cell cycle arrest by inhibiting phosphorylation of the retinoblastoma protein (pRb) by the cyclin-dependent kinases CDK4 and CDK6. However, induction of p16INK4a also causes marked inhibition of CDK2 activity. In the case of cyclin E-CDK2, this is brought about by reassortment of cyclin, CDK, and CDK-inhibitor complexes, particularly those involving p27KIP1. Size fractionation of the cellular lysates reveals that a substantial proportion of CDK4 participates in active kinase complexes of around 200 kDa. Upon induction of p16INK4a, this complex is partly dissociated, and the majority of CDK4 is found in lower-molecular-weight fractions consistent with the formation of a binary complex with p16INK4a. Sequestration of CDK4 by p16INK4a allows cyclin D1 to associate increasingly with CDK2, without affecting its interactions with the CIP/KIP inhibitors. Thus, upon the induction of p16INK4a, p27KIP1 appears to switch its allegiance from CDK4 to CDK2, and the accompanying reassortment of components leads to the inhibition of cyclin E-CDK2 by p27KIP1 and p21CIP1. Significantly, p16INK4a itself does not appear to form higher-order complexes, and the overwhelming majority remains either free or forms binary associations with CDK4 and CDK6.
