Abstract excerpt
p27(Kip1) levels increase in many cells as they leave the cell cycle and begin to differentiate. The increase in p27(Kip1) levels generally precedes the expression of differentiation-specific genes. Previous studies from our laboratory showed that the overexpression of p27(Kip1) enhances myelin basic protein (MBP) promoter activity. This activation is specific to p27(Kip1). Additionally, inhibition of...
