Abstract

Cell division cycle protein 45 (Cdc45) plays a critical role in DNA replication to ensure that chromosomal DNA is replicated only once per cell cycle. We analysed the expression of human Cdc45 in proliferating and nonproliferating cells. Our findings show that Cdc45 protein is absent from long-term quiescent, terminally differentiated and senescent human cells, although it is present throughout the cell cycle of proliferating cells. Moreover, Cdc45 is much less abundant than the minichromosome maintenance (Mcm) proteins in human cells, supporting the concept that origin binding of Cdc45 is rate limiting for replication initiation. We also show that the Cdc45 protein level is consistently higher in human cancer-derived cells compared with primary human cells. Consequently, tumour tissue is preferentially stained using Cdc45-specific antibodies. Thus, Cdc45 expression is tightly associated with proliferating cell populations and Cdc45 seems to be a promising candidate for a novel proliferation marker in cancer cell biology.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 01 August 2017.
All research outputs
#8,534,528
of 25,373,627 outputs
Outputs from FEBS Journal
#4,189
of 12,259 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#28,405
of 78,478 outputs
Outputs of similar age from FEBS Journal
#14
of 42 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,373,627 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 12,259 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.8. This one is in the 24th percentile – i.e., 24% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 78,478 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 15th percentile – i.e., 15% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 42 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 2nd percentile – i.e., 2% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
