Abstract

A novel class of NIMA interacting proteins (PIN), exemplified by Pin1, is provided. Pin1 induces a G2 arrest and delays NIMA-induced mitosis when overexpressed, and triggers mitotic arrest and DNA fragmentation when depleted. Methods of identifying other Pin proteins and Pin-interacting proteins and identifying compositions which affect Pin activity or expression are also provided.
