E2F was originally identified through its role in transcriptional activation of the adenovirus E2 promoter. Sequences homologous to the E2F binding site have...
Dysferlin is a muscle-specific protein that is essential for normal muscle function and development. Mutations in the human dysferlin gene, DYSF, which maps...
The human retinoblastoma gene product appears to play an important role in the negative egulation of cell proliferation. Functional inactivation of Rb can be...
The PIKrelated kinases include Atm, DNA-PKCS and FRAP. These proteins have in common a region of homology at their carboxy termini that is not present in the...
DNA replication, recombination and repair, all of which are necessary for genomic stability, require the presence of exonucleases. In DNA replication, these...
The DJ-1 gene encodes a highly-conserved protein which is implicated in a number of cell processes. DJ-1 was first identified as a novel oncogene that...
Cytochrome C is an electron transporting protein that resides within the intermembrane space of the mitochondria, where it plays a critical role in the...
Cyclins are the regulatory subunits of Cdc2 p34 and related cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks) which play critical roles in the control of cell cycle...
Cyclins were first identified in invertebrates as proteins that oscillate dramatically through the cell cycle. These proteins have been well conserved...

Cyclin A accumulates prior to cyclin B in the cell cycle, appears to be involved in control of S phase and has been shown to associate with cyclin-dependent...
The critical role that the family of regulatory proteins known as cyclins play in eukaryotic cell cycle regulation is well established. The...
Cullin proteins comprise a distinct family of mediators that participate in the selective targeting of proteins for ubiquitin (Ub)-mediated proteolysis....
CUL-1, which is the mammalian homolog of yeast Cdc53, is an integral component of the E3 ubiquitin ligase complex designated SCF. The SCF (Skp1/CUL-1/F-box...
Normal tissues are characterized by a balance between cellular stasis, cell proliferation, cell differentiation and cell death. Aberrant regulation of any of...
Crk I and Crk II are encoded by the same gene, which undergoes alternative splicing to yield these two proteins, but differ in their biological activities....
Cyclic AMP-regulated gene expression frequently involves a DNA element designated the cAMP-regulated enhancer (CRE). Many transcription factors bind to this...
Cyclic AMP Response Element Binding protein (CREB) is a basic / leucine zipper transcription factor that binds the cyclic AMP response element (CRE) and...
Prostaglandins are a diverse group of autocrine and paracrine hormones that mediate many cellular and physiologic processes. Prostaglandin H2 (PGH2) is an...
