Abstract excerpt
Recent experiments have shown that the E2F transcription factor is in a complex with the RB1 gene product. The E2F-pRB complex can be reconstituted in an in vitro assay using a GST-RB fusion protein isolated from Escherichia coli. This interaction is dependent on pRB sequences involved in E1A/T-antigen binding as well as carboxy-terminal pRB sequences that are not necessary for E1A/T binding. Moreover,...
