Fbxw7 in cell cycle exit and stem cell maintenance: Insight from gene-targeted mice

Abstract excerpt

Regulation of the exit of cells from the cell cycle is important in the development of multicellular organisms and is also implicated in the maintenance of stem cells. Furthermore, defects in cell cycle exit are thought to be a major cause of cancer. However, the mechanisms responsible for regulation of cell cycle exit have remained largely unknown. Fbxw7 is the F-box protein subunit of an SCF-type ubiquitin...
