Transcriptional Control of Cell Growth The E2F Gene Family

It is of critical importance to maintain an appropriate balance between proliferation and quiescence or differentiation through­ out the lifespan of all animals. An important control point in this balance occurs in the G, phase of the cell cycle. On the basis of environmental cues a cell in G, must...
