This gene encodes a transcription factor that contains a
cyclin D-binding domain, three central Myb-like repeats, and two
flanking acidic transactivation domains at the N- and C-termini.
The encoded protein is induced by the oncogenic Ras signaling
pathway and functions as a tumor suppressor by activating the
transcription of ARF and thus the ARF-p53 pathway to arrest cell
growth or induce apoptosis. It also activates the transcription of
aminopeptidase N and may play a role in hematopoietic cell
differentiation. The transcriptional activity of this protein is
regulated by binding of D-cyclins. This gene is hemizygously
deleted in approximately 40% of human non-small-cell lung cancer
and is a potential prognostic and gene-therapy target for
non-small-cell lung cancer. Multiple transcript variants encoding
different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by
