Abstract excerpt
Cell cycle control by pRb requires the integrity of the pocket domain, which is a region necessary for interactions with a variety of proteins, including E2F and LXCXE-motif containing proteins. Through knowledge of the crystal structure of pRb we have prepared a panel of pRb mutant derivatives in which a cluster of lysine residues that demark the LXCXE peptide binding domain were systematically mutated. One of...
