Preferred Label : EFP Cell Cycle Pathway;
NCIt related terms : Estrogen-responsive protein Efp controls cell cycle and breast tumors growth;
Alternative definition : BIOCARTA: The estrogen-inducible RING finger protein Efp stimulates proliferation
of breast cancer cells. 14-3-3 is p53-inducible protein that sequesters mitotic Cdks
in the cytoplasm to inhibit entry into mitosis. To allow cell-cycle progression, estrogens
stimulate production of Efp, which binds and ubiquinates 14-3-3s sigma. 14-3-3s marked
with ubiquitin chains is recognized and destroyed by the proteasome. Released Cdks
are now free to escape into the nucleus and promote mitotic entry. (This definition
