Retinoblastoma protein: Combating algal bloom [PDF]
The discovery of a homolog of the retinoblastoma protein (Rb) in a single-celled eukaryote--the alga Chlamydomonas--promises new and surprising insights into Rb's function in cell-cycle regulation.

Transcriptional inhibition by the retinoblastoma protein
Abstract The retinoblastoma protein, pRB, appears to play a key role in coordinating the regulation of cell cycle position and transcriptional events. pRB undergoes specific cell-cycle-dependent phosphorylation, being underphosphorylated in G1 and heavily phosphorylated in S, G2, and M. The underphosphorylated form is able to interact

Expression of multidrug resistance proteins in retinoblastoma [PDF]
AIM: To elucidate the mechanism of multidrug resistance in retinoblastoma, and to acquire more insights into in vivo drug resistance. METHODS: Three anticancer drug resistant Y79 human RB cells were generated against vincristine, etoposide or ...

The retinoblastoma protein modulates Tbx2 functional specificity [PDF]
Tbx2 is a member of a large family of transcription factors defined by homology to the T-box DNA-binding domain. Tbx2 plays a key role in embryonic development, and in cancer through its capacity to suppress senescence and promote invasiveness.

Phosphoproteomics of Retinoblastoma: A Pilot Study Identifies Aberrant Kinases
Retinoblastoma is a malignant tumour of the retina which most often occurs in children. Earlier studies on retinoblastoma have concentrated on the identification of key players in the disease and have not provided information on activated/inhibited ...

Influence of retinoblastoma-related gene silencing on the initiation of DNA replication by African cassava mosaic virus Rep in cells of mature leaves in Nicotiana benthamiana plants [PDF]
Background Geminiviruses mainly infect terminally differentiated tissues and cells in plants. They need to reprogramme host cellular machinery for DNA replication.

Generation of human embryonic stem cell line with heterozygous RB1 deletion by CRIPSR/Cas9 nickase
The Retinoblastoma 1 (RB1) tumor suppressor, a member of the Retinoblastoma gene family, functions as a pocket protein for the functional binding of E2F transcription factors.

p25/Cdk5-mediated retinoblastoma phosphorylation is an early event in neuronal cell death [PDF]
In large models of neuronal cell death, there is a tight correlation between Cdk5 deregulation and cell-cycle dysfunction. However, pathways that link Cdk5 to the cell cycle during neuronal death are still unclear.
