Analysis of expression and encoding protein of CDK16. A, chromosome location and exon, intron abundance of CDK16 based on RNA-seq. B, RT-PCR product of CDK16. M. DL2000 DNA Marker. C, CDK16 CDS and encoding amino acids. The colored shade represents the conserved domain S_TKc (amino acid positions 171-452). D, ORF analysis of CDK16 cDNA.

Fig. 2.
The spatial structure and conserved domains of CDK16 protein. A, Secondary structure of CDK16 protein. The red, pink, green and blue vertical lines represent extended strand, random coil, beta turn and alpha helix, respectively. B, Tertiary structure of CDK16 protein. The N-terminal, C-terminal, α-helix, β-sheet, β-turn and random coil are highlighted with thick arrows. C, The conserved domains S_TKc (171-452).
Fig. 3.
Amino acid sequences analysis of CDK16 across 14 mammalian species. A, The homology analysis of CDK16 among 14 species. B, Phylogenetic tree of CDK16 from 14 species.
Fig. 4.

Interaction network of CDK16. A, Protein-protein Interaction networks. The lines connected proteins indicated the interactions with each other, and more lines indicated higher confidence level. B, Interaction network of KEGG enrichment of CDK16. C, Interaction network of GO enrichment of CDK16, including proteins and the pathways related to biological process, cellular component and molecular function. D, Chord plot of genes that were correlated with CDK16. The wathet lines within the circle indicated significant correlation.

Fig. 5.

The functional annotation of CDK16 and regulatory network of CDK16-miRNA-lncRNA. The different elements of this network were represented by hexagon, rhombus, square, and sphere, which correspond to CDK16 mRNA, miRNA, lncRNA and GO pathways including green cellular component, pink biological process and blue molecular function.
