The E2F transcriptional network: old acquaintances with new faces

Oncogene volume 24, pages 2810–2826 (2005)Cite this article

Abstract

The E2 factor (E2F) family of transcription factors are downstream targets of the retinoblastoma protein. E2F factors have been known for several years to be important regulators of S-phase entry. Recent studies have improved our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of action used by this transcriptional network. In addition, they have given us an appreciation of the fact that E2F has functions that reach beyond G1/S control and impact cell proliferation in several different ways. The discovery of new family members with unusual properties, the unexpected phenotypes of mutant animals, a diverse collection of biological activities, a large number of new putative target genes and the new modes of transcriptional regulation have all contributed to an increasingly complex view of E2F function. In this review, we will discuss these recent developments and describe how they are beginning to shape a new and revised picture of the E2F transcriptional program.
