Abstract excerpt
The retinoblastoma tumor-suppressor protein (RB) is an important regulator of cell cycle and apoptosis. RB is phosphorylated by cyclin-dependent protein kinase during cell cycle progression. A phosphorylation site mutated (PSM)-RB has previously been shown to cause G1 arrest and to interfere with S phase progression. In this study, we examined the effect of inducible PSM-RB expression on the apoptotic response to...
