Evolution

CDC25 subfamily is found in a broad of eukaryotes, but absent from most if not all of plants. It has multiple copies in many species, including two in human, and Drosophila and four in C. elegans, all from apparently independent duplications.

Domain

Human CDC25s have an N-terminal regulatory domain and phosphatase domain, called M-phase inducer phosphatase domain in Pfam. Due to alternative splicing, the isoforms of human CDC25s have different sequences at regulatory domain region. The N-terminal regulatory domain is found in most deuterostomes, but not protostomes.

Catalytic activity and functions

Cdc25 phosphatases, as activators of the Cdk/cyclins, play critical roles in the regulation of the eukaryotic cell cycle. Their structures and functions have been reviewed in detail [1, 2, 3].
