NCIt definition : Retinoblastoma-like protein 2 (1139 aa, 130 kDa) is encoded by the human RBL2 gene.
This protein plays a role in the regulation of cell division.;
NCIt note : Expressed only in G0, retinoblastoma-like 2 protein binds to adenovirus E1A protein
and to cyclins A and E, associates preferentially with E2F5, inhibits E2F-mediated
trans-activation, and may function in cell cycle regulation. Ser-672 phosphorylation
in G1 leads to ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis of RBL2.;
