CKIs, or Cyclin-Dependent Kinase Inhibitors, are proteins that play a crucial role in regulating the cell cycle by inhibiting the activity of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). These inhibitors help ensure that the cell cycle progresses at the right pace and can halt the cycle in response to DNA damage or other cellular stresses, promoting proper cell division and preventing uncontrolled growth.
congrats on reading the definition of CKIs. now let's actually learn it.
