Estrogen-induced Activation of Cdk4 and Cdk2 during G1-S Phase Progression Is Accompanied by Increased Cyclin D1 Expression and Decreased Cyclin-dependent Kinase Inhibitor Association with Cyclin…
Estrogens induce cell proliferation in target tissues by stimulating progression through G1 phase of the cell cycle, but the underlying molecular targets remain undefined. To determine the role of… Expand

Identification of a human HECT family protein with homology to the Drosophila tumor suppressor gene hyperplastic discs
Use of the differential display technique to isolate progestin-regulated genes in T-47D human breast cancer cells led to identification of a novel gene, EDD. The cDNA sequence contains a 2799 amino… Expand

EDD, the Human Hyperplastic Discs Protein, Has a Role in Progesterone Receptor Coactivation and Potential Involvement in DNA Damage Response*
The ubiquitin-protein ligase EDD encodes an orthologue of the hyperplastic discs tumor suppressor gene, which has a critical role in Drosophila development. Frequent allelic imbalance at the EDD… Expand

Expression and amplification of cyclin genes in human breast cancer.
Cyclins, the regulatory subunits of cyclin-dependent kinases, play an important role in the control of cellular proliferation. Since dysregulated expression of these genes may contribute to the… Expand

Growth factor, steroid, and steroid antagonist regulation of cyclin gene expression associated with changes in T-47D human breast cancer cell cycle progression.
Cyclins and proto-oncogenes including c-myc have been implicated in eukaryotic cell cycle control. The role of cyclins in steroidal regulation of cell proliferation is unknown, but a role for c-myc… Expand
