Name | Wee1 |

Function | Acts as a negative regulator of entry into mitosis (G2 to M transition) by protecting the nucleus from cytoplasmically activated cyclin B1-complexed CDK1 before the onset of mitosis by mediating phosphorylation of CDK1 on 'Tyr-15'. Specifically phosphorylates and inactivates cyclin B1-complexed CDK1 reaching a maximum during G2 phase and a minimum as cells enter M phase. Phosphorylation of cyclin B1-CDK1 occurs exclusively on 'Tyr-15' and phosphorylation of monomeric CDK1 does not occur. Its activity increases during S and G2 phases and decreases at M phase when it is hyperphosphorylated. A correlated decrease in protein level occurs at M/G1 phase, probably due to its degradation. |

Background
Wee1 is a nuclear tyrosine protein kinase. The protein plays a role in suppressing eukaryotes’ entry into mitosis by inactivating cdc2 kinase by inhibiting tyrosine phosphorylation. The predicted molecular weight of the kinase is 72 kDa. The kinase possesses tyrosine kinase activity, but structurally belongs to the serine/threonine protein kinase family.
