Beschreibung:
The human retinoblastoma gene (RB1) encodes a protein (Rb) of 105 kilodaltons that can be phosphorylated. Analysis of Rb metabolism has shown that the protein has a half-life of more than 10 hours and is synthesized at all phases of the cell cycle. Newly synthesized Rb is not extensively phosphorylated (it is "underphosphorylated") in cells in the G0 and G1 phases but is phosphorylated at multiple sites at the G1/S boundary and in S phase. HL-60 cells that were induced to terminally differentiate by various chemicals lost their ability to phosphorylate newly synthesized Rb at multiple sites when cell growth was arrested. These findings suggest that underphosphorylated Rb may restrict cell proliferation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mihara, K -- Cao, X R -- Yen, A -- Chandler, S -- Driscoll, B -- Murphree, A L -- T'Ang, A -- Fung, Y K -- 5P30CA14089/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA 44754/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- EY 07846/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Dec 8;246(4935):1300-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Hematology/Oncology and Ophthalmology, Childrens Hospital of Los Angeles, CA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2588006" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
