    basic FUNCTION
  • dual specificity (tyr/thr) phosphatase, putative upregulated c-Myc target gene
  • acting as a regulator of the cell cycle required for progression from G1 to S phase
  • functioning as a dosage-dependent inducer of mitotic progression
  • coordinate cell cycle progression through activating dephosphorylation of Cyclin-dependent kinases
  • directly dephosphorylating CDC2 and stimulating its kinase activity
  • has non-redundant functions in late G2/early M-phase as a major regulator of Cyclin A/kinase complexes
  • mainly involved in chromatin condensation and acts after Cdc25B in G2–M phase
  • can activate both Cdk1/Cyclin A and Cdk2/Cyclin A complexes in G2–M
  • may have an essential function during early embryonic development
  • with CSC25B and CDC25C, are implicated at G1/S, during S-phase, at G2/M and during mitosis (are implicated at G1/S, during S-phase, at G2/M and during mitosis
  • having effects on breast cancer cell metastasis, independent of cell proliferation and apoptosis
  • dual specificity protein phosphatase, exhibiting anti-apoptotic activity
  • has an important physiological role in NFKB activity regulation and it may be an important survival mechanism of cancer cells
  • FOXM1 controls the cell cycle through its association with CDC25A
  • CDC25A normally plays a pivotal role in regulating the G1/S and G2/M transitions by dephosphorylating and activating cyclin/cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) complexes

    a component
  • ubiquitinated
  • INTERACTION
    DNA

    small molecule other,
    protein
  • interacting with CCNB1/cyclin B1
  • interacting with YWHAE/14- 3-3 epsilon when phosphorylated
  • interacting with CUL1 specifically when CUL1 is neddylated and active
  • interacting with BOLL (a decreased CDC25A expression caused by lack or decrease of BOLL may be associated with male infertility)
  • interacting with BTRC/BTRCP1 and FBXW11/BTRCP2
  • interactions with CUL1, BTRC and FBXW11 are enhanced upon DNA damage
  • TRIB3 is a regulator for adjusting the expression level of CDC25A both in a normal and a genotoxic conditions
  • enhancing FOXO1 stability by dephosphorylating CDK2
  • stimulates NFKB activity by destabilizing NFKBIA protein through inducing its phosphorylation and ubiquitination
  • FOXM1 directly regulates CDC25A gene transcription via direct promoter binding and indirect activation of E2F-dependent pathways
  • RPS6KA3 promotes G2/M transition in mammalian cells through activating phosphorylation of CDC25A and CDC25B
  • STK38-mediated phosphorylation of CDC25A at Ser-76 and the subsequent degradation of CDC25A are required to promote DNA damage-induced G2/M checkpoint activation

    REGULATION
    activated by cyclin B
    inhibited by ubiquinated and degraded by the proteasome pathway
    phosphorylated and inactivated by CHEK1
    Other specifically degraded in response to DNA damage
    deubiquitinated by USP17L2
    stimulated by B-type cyclins
    ubiquitinated by CUL1
    phosphorylated by NEK11, phosphorylation that is required for its polyubiquitination and thus degradation
