The mammalian D-type cyclins DI, D2, and D3 activate the cyclin-dependent kinases CDK4 and CDK6 in G1 and thereby promote the cell's commitment to enter S phase. To elucidate the extent of functional overlap among the D-type cyclins, we have examined several aspects of the least characterized member of this subfamily of G1 cyclin proteins, cyclin D3. Microinjection of cyclin D3-neutralizing antibody inhibited G1/S transition in human (IMR-90) and rat (R12) diploid fibroblasts, indicating that analogous to cyclins D1 and D2, cyclin D3 is essential for timely progression through Gf. In contrast to cyclins D1 and D2, cyclin D3 was (i) ubiquitously expressed among a panel of 70 human cultured cell types; (ii) strongly upregulated upon induction of HL-60 leukaemia cells to differentiate; and (iii) accumulated to high levels in a wide range of quiescent cell types in mouse and human differentiated tissues. Complementary analyses of human biopsies and mouse tissues at different stages of foetal and postnatal development revealed lineage-dependent transient or long-term accumulation of the cyclin D3 protein, correlating with initiation/establishment or maintenance of the mature phenotypes, respectively. Our data support the notion that the biological roles of the individual D-type cyclins are not fully redundant, and suggest a possible dual role for cyclin D3 in cell proliferation and induction and/or maintenance of terminal differentiation.
