Cdk’s are found in Eukaryotes, including human and yeast cells. Each organism has a different number of Cdks. In yeast, there is less, and more in humans. It is easier to study which Cdk is responsible for which part of the cell cycle in yeast than in humans, because of the level of complexity of Cdk and other cell activities in Homo Sapiens | Cdk’s are found in Eukaryotes, including human and yeast cells. Each organism has a different number of Cdks. In yeast, there is less, and more in humans. It is easier to study which Cdk is responsible for which part of the cell cycle in yeast than in humans, because of the level of complexity of Cdk and other cell activities in Homo Sapiens <ref name="overall cdk">. However, the function of Cdk is similar in all organisms in that it is part of the cell cycle regulation. For this reason, Cdk is often studied as targets for cancer treatment. | ||
