Other NameTFDP1; DP1; Transcription factor Dp-1; DRTF1-polypeptide 1; DRTF1; E2F dimerization partner 1
Functionfunction:Can stimulate E2F-dependent transcription. Binds DNA cooperatively with E2F family members through the E2 recognition site, 5'-TTTC[CG]CGC-3', found in the promoter region of a number of genes whose products are involved in cell cycle regulation or in DNA replication. The DP2/E2F complex functions in the control of cell-cycle progression from G1 to S phase. The E2F-1/DP complex appears to mediate both cell proliferation and apoptosis.,induction:Down-regulated during differentiation.,miscellaneous:E2F/DP transactivation can be mediated by several cofactors including TBP, TFIIH, MDM2 and CBP.,PTM:Phosphorylation by E2F-1-bound cyclin A-CDK2, in the S phase, inhibits E2F-mediated DNA binding and transactivation.,similarity:Belongs to the E2F/DP family.,subunit:Component of the E2F/DP transcription factor complex. Forms heterodimers with E2F family members. The complex can interact

Backgroundtranscription factor Dp-1(TFDP1) Homo sapiens This gene encodes a member of a family of transcription factors that heterodimerize with E2F proteins to enhance their DNA-binding activity and promote transcription from E2F target genes. The encoded protein functions as part of this complex to control the transcriptional activity of numerous genes involved in cell cycle progression from G1 to S phase. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Pseudogenes of this gene are found on chromosomes 1, 15, and X.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2009],
