Transcription factor DP
In molecular biology, transcription factor DP is a family of proteins which function as transcription factors.
DP forms a heterodimer with E2F and regulates genes involved in cell cycle progression. The transcriptional activity of E2F is inhibited by the retinoblastoma protein which binds to the E2F-DP heterodimer and negatively Regulation of [gene expression|regulates] the G1-S transition.
