✦ Synopsis


The product of the retinoblastoma gene ( R B I ) is believed to function as a negative regulator of cell growth. Recent experimental results suggest that RBI may exert its growth-suppressing activity by regulating the transcription of a variety of growthrelated genes, including FOS, MYC, and TGFB /. A series of biochemical and molecular analyses suggest that RBI indirectly affects gene expression via cell-cycle-regulated interactions with transcription factors, such as E2F and SP I. Determination of the mechanisms regulating such protein-protein interactions and the identification of additional targets of RB I function will provide vital insights into the role of this tumor-suppressor gene in mammalian cell proliferation. Genes Chrorn Cancer 6:124-/3/ ( I 993).

The retinoblastoma protein (pRB) can both positively and negatively regulate transcription. The former correlates with its ability to promote differentiation and the latter with its ability to regulate entry into S-phase. pRB negatively regulates transcription by forming complexes with members of th
