New research offers unprecedented insight into how an enigmatic enzyme, known as CDK7, drives the cell cycle and cell proliferation. For organs to develop, grow and regenerate, cells must proliferate.

CU Boulder researchers have uncovered how the enzyme CDK7 drives cell proliferation by controlling a key group of transcription factors, and how inhibiting it can rapidly shut down this process across ...

For decades, cancer researchers and pharmaceutical companies have eyed cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK7) with interest due to its role as a "master regulator" of cell proliferation. CDK7 does this in ...

New CU Boulder research, published in the journal Science Advances, offers unprecedented insight into how an enigmatic enzyme, known as CDK7, drives this complex process. The research shows that ...

But when that process goes awry, leading to uncontrolled cell growth, cancer can emerge. New CU Boulder research, published in the journal Science Advances, offers unprecedented insight into how an ...
