[Cell Division Cycle 25A Protein (CDC25A), encodes by the CDC25A gene, is a member of the CDC25 family of phosphatases. CDC25A is required for progression from G1 to the S phase of the cell cycle. It activates the cyclin-dependent kinase CDC2 by removing two phosphate groups. CDC25A is specifically degraded in response to DNA damage, which prevents cells with chromosomal abnormalities from progressing through cell division. The CDC25A gene is an oncogene, although its exact role in oncogenesis has not been demonstrated. (RefSeq Summary) ( NCI )]
