Nucleocytoplasmic Shuttling of the Retinoblastoma Tumor Suppressor Protein via Cdk Phosphorylation-dependent Nuclear Export
17 Oct 2006
Abstract excerpt
The retinoblastoma (RB) tumor suppressor protein is a negative regulator of cell proliferation that is functionally inactivated in the majority of human tumors. Elevated Cdk activity via RB pathway mutations is observed in virtually every human cancer. Thus, Cdk inhibitors have tremendous promise as anticancer agents although detailed mechanistic knowledge of their effects on RB function is needed to harness...
