  1. ncbi A G1 checkpoint mediated by the retinoblastoma protein that is dispensable in terminal differentiation but essential for senescence
    Srikanth Talluri
    Department of Biochemistry, University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario, Canada
    Mol Cell Biol 30:948-60. 2010
    ..Remarkably, this reveals that pRB recruits chromatin regulators primarily to engage a stress-responsive G(1) arrest program...
  2. ncbi The retinoblastoma family of proteins and their regulatory functions in the mammalian cell division cycle
    Shauna A Henley
    London Regional Cancer Program, Western University, London, Ontario, Canada
    Cell Div 7:10. 2012
    ..This propels the cell cycle irreversibly forward leading to DNA synthesis. This review will focus on the basic biochemistry and cell biology governing the regulation and activity of mammalian RB family proteins in cell cycle control...
  3. ncbi Structure-function analysis of the retinoblastoma tumor suppressor protein - is the whole a sum of its parts?
    Frederick A Dick
    London Regional Cancer Program, London, Ontario, Canada
    Cell Div 2:26. 2007
    ..This article will also discuss the prospects for using this approach to further explore the unknown functions of pRB...
  4. ncbi Sweet DREAMs for Hippo
    Frederick A Dick
    London Regional Cancer Program, London, Ontario N6A 4L6, Canada
    Genes Dev 25:889-94. 2011
    ..Three recent studies in Genes & Development reveal how cellular proliferation is coordinated between these pathways. Here we discuss the implications of these studies and the new questions that they raise...
  5. ncbi A cancer derived mutation in the Retinoblastoma gene with a distinct defect for LXCXE dependent interactions
    Shauna A Henley
    London Regional Cancer Program, 790 Commissioners Road East, London, Ontario, N6A 4L6, Canada
    Cancer Cell Int 10:8. 2010
    ..CONCLUSIONS: Our work provides proof of principal that alleles encoding distinct, partial loss of function mutations in the retinoblastoma gene that specifically lose LXCXE dependent interactions, are found in human cancer...
  6. ncbi Mitotic chromosome condensation mediated by the retinoblastoma protein is tumor-suppressive
    Courtney H Coschi
    London Regional Cancer Program, University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario, Canada
    Genes Dev 24:1351-63. 2010

    Jasmyne Carnevale
    London Regional Cancer Program, London, Ontario, Canada
    Mol Cell Biol 32:900-12. 2012
