Entrez Gene summary for CDK8:
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the cyclin-dependent protein kinase (CDK) family. CDK family members
are highly similar to the gene products of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cdc28, and Schizosaccharomyces pombe cdc2, and are
known to be important regulators of cell cycle progression. This kinase and its regulatory subunit cyclin C are
components of the RNA polymerase II holoenzyme complex, which phosphorylates the carboxy-terminal domain (CTD) of the
largest subunit of RNA polymerase II. This kinase has also been shown to regulate transcription by targeting the
CDK7/cyclin H subunits of the general transcription initiation factor IIH (TFIIH), thus providing a link between the
'Mediator-like' protein complexes and the basal transcription machinery. (provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: CDK8_HUMAN, P49336
Function: Component of the Mediator complex, a coactivator involved in regulated gene transcription of nearly all RNA
polymerase II-dependent genes. Mediator functions as a bridge to convey information from gene-specific regulatory
proteins to the basal RNA polymerase II transcription machinery. Mediator is recruited to promoters by direct
interactions with regulatory proteins and serves as a scaffold for the assembly of a functional preinitiation complex
with RNA polymerase II and the general transcription factors. Phosphorylates the CTD (C-terminal domain) of the large
subunit of RNA polymerase II (RNAp II), which may inhibit the formation of a transcription initiation complex.
Phosphorylates CCNH leading to down-regulation of the TFIIH complex and transcriptional repression. Recruited through
interaction with MAML1 to hyperphosphorylate the intracellular domain of NOTCH, leading to its degradation

module termed the CDK8 module. Mediator containing the CDK8 module is less active than Mediator lacking this module in
supporting transcriptional activation. Individual preparations of the Mediator complex lacking one or more distinct
subunits have been variously termed ARC, CRSP, DRIP, PC2, SMCC and TRAP. The cylin/CDK pair formed by CCNC/CDK8 also
