CDK2 is a member of the eukaryotic S T protein kinase family and its function is to catalyze the phosphoryl transfer of ATP γ-phosphate to serine or threonine hydroxyl (denoted as S0 T0) in a protein substrate.
Cyclin-dependent kinase 2 also known as cell division protein kinase 2. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the cyclin-dependent kinase family of Ser Thr protein kinases. This protein kinase is highly similar to the gene products of S. cerevis
