E2F5 Proteins and Enzymes

The protein encoded by the E2F5 gene is a member of the E2F family of transcription factors. The E2F family plays a crucialrole in the control of cell cycle and action of tumor suppressor proteins and is also a target of the transformingproteins of small DNA tumor viruses. The E2F proteins contain several evolutionarily conserved domains that arepresent in most members of the family. These domains include a DNA binding domain, a dimerization domain whichdetermines interaction with the ...
