Transcription factor E2F binds DNA as a heterodimer.
E2F is a mammalian transcription factor that appears to play an important role in cell cycle control. DNA affinity column-purified E2F from HeLa cells reproducibly exhibits multiple protein bands when analyzed by SDS/PAGE. After electrophoretic purification, electroelution, and refolding of the individual protein components, the E2F DNA binding activity of the individual proteins was poor. Howe...
متن کاملImplication of transcription factor E2F in regulation of DNA replication.
The transcription factor E2F plays crucial roles in induction of S phase in mammalian cells by regulating the expression of genes that encode molecules involved in cell cycle progression. E2F exerts a repressive effect on E2F-responsive genes in G0/G1 phase by associating with the retinoblastoma tumor suppressor gene product pRb and the related protein p130. This repression is relieved by phosp...
متن کاملpRB, p107 and the regulation of the E2F transcription factor.
Small DNA tumor viruses, such as adenovirus, encode proteins that deregulate the cell cycle. These proteins are potent transforming agents when tested in standard oncogenic assays. For adenovirus the best characterized viral oncoproteins are the early region 1A (E1A) products. Mutational studies have shown that E1A's oncogenic ability is determined primarily by its ability to bind to certain ce...
متن کاملThe E2F6 transcription factor is a component of the mammalian Bmi1-containing polycomb complex.
The E2F transcription factors play a key role in the regulation of cellular proliferation and terminal differentiation. E2F6 is the most recently identified and the least well understood member of the E2F family. It is only distantly related to the other E2Fs and lacks the sequences responsible for both transactivation and binding to the retinoblastoma protein. Consistent with this finding, E2F...
متن کاملA role for E2F6 in distinguishing G1/S- and G2/M-specific transcription.
E2F transcription factors play a critical role in the control of cell cycle progression, regulating the expression of genes involved in DNA replication, DNA repair, mitosis, and cell fate. This involves both positive-acting and negative-acting E2F proteins, the latter group including the E2F6 protein, which has been shown to function as an Rb-independent repressor of E2F-target gene transcripti...
