Cell cycle regulators are the cell cycle only when they are tight bound to CDKS.
Explanation:
To be fully active, the CDK/Cyclin complex must also be phosphorylated in specific locations. Like all kinases, CDKS are enzymes (kinases) that phosphorylate other proteins. Phosphorylation activates the protein by changing its shape.
A gene codes for a particular protein that is involved in the expression of a trait. Characteristics determined by single genes are called Mendelian traits.
