Protein attributes

Sequence length	164 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is further processed into a mature form.
Protein existence	Evidence at protein level.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	May be the important intermediate by which p53 mediates its role as an inhibitor of cellular proliferation in response to DNA damage. Binds to and inhibits cyclin-dependent kinase activity, preventing phosphorylation of critical cyclin-dependent kinase substrates and blocking cell cycle progression.
Subcellular location	Cytoplasm. Nucleus.
Tissue specificity	Expressed in all adult human tissues, with 5-fold lower levels observed in the brain.
Induction	By p53, mezerein (antileukemic compound) and interferon beta.
Post-translational modification	Phosphorylation of Thr-145 by Akt or of Ser-146 by PKC impairs binding to PCNA.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the CDI family.
