Abstract excerpt
Myc is a key regulator of cell growth, differentiation and apoptosis, and affects cell fate decisions by activating as well as by inhibiting the expression of cellular genes. Myc is a member of the basic region-helix-loop-helix-leucine zipper (b-HLH-Zip) class of transcription factors, which heterodimerizes with the Max protein and recognizes a consensus Myc binding motif. Stimulation of gene expression by Myc is...
