Normal proliferation and tumorigenesis but impaired pancreatic function in mice lacking the cell cycle regulator sei1.
Sei1 is a positive regulator of proliferation that promotes the assembly of Cdk4-cyclin D complexes and enhances the transcriptional activity of E2f1. The potential oncogenic role of Sei1 is further suggested by its overexpression in various types of human cancers. To study the role of Sei1, we have...
