项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY Gain-of-function mutations of oncogenes and loss-of-function mutations of tumor suppressor genes drive the initiation and progression of human cancer. These genes also play critical roles in normal development and cellular differentiation. Genetic or epigenetic alterations in the Rb pathway are required for the initiation and progression of most types of human cancer. The three inter-related projects in this program will address major outstanding fundamental questions about the functioning of key proteins in the Rb pathway: Cyclin D-Cdk4/6 oncoproteins that regulate Rb by phosphorylation, the Rb family of tumor suppressors that act as transcriptional regulators, and the E2F family of transcription factors that interact with and are directly regulated by the Rb family proteins and control the transcription of genes important for cell cycle progression. A major goal of this program project is to investigate the Rb pathway using an interdisciplinary approach. The major goal of this Core is to provide an administrative framework to help implement the scientific goals and disseminate the results of the proposed experiments. Specifically, the Administrative Core will have three goals. The first goal will be to promote scientific interactions among the Project Leaders and laboratory members involved in the three main Projects and two Scientific Cores. The second goal will be to provide scientific and financial guidance and oversight, including in conjunction with an Internal Advisory Committee and an External Scientific Advisory Board. The third goal will be to facilitate communication among the members of the Projects and Cores themselves and to the greater scientific community and the public. To achieve these goals, the Leader for this Administrative Core, will work closely with the Leaders of each of the Projects and Scientific Cores. Regular scientific interactions to exchange ideas and results, feedback from members of the internal advisory committee and the external scientific advisory board, and specific metrics to monitor progress, will all be critical to help uncover novel fundamental mechanisms underlying cell cycle progression.

项目概要癌基因的功能获得突变和抑癌基因的功能丧失突变驱动着肿瘤的发生。人类癌症的发生和进展。这些基因在正常发育和发育过程中也发挥着关键作用。细胞分化。 Rb 途径的遗传或表观遗传改变对于启动和大多数类型的人类癌症的进展。该计划中的三个相互关联的项目将解决主要问题关于 Rb 通路中关键蛋白功能的突出基本问题：细胞周期蛋白 D-Cdk4/6 通过磷酸化调节 Rb 的癌蛋白，Rb 是肿瘤抑制因子家族中的转录因子调节因子，以及与 Rb 家族相互作用并直接受其调节的转录因子 E2F 家族蛋白质并控制对细胞周期进程重要的基因的转录。该计划的一个主要目标该项目的目的是使用跨学科方法研究 Rb 途径。该核心的主要目标是提供一个行政框架，帮助实现科学目标并传播科学成果提出的实验。具体来说，行政核心将有三个目标。第一个目标是促进科学互动参与三个主要项目和两个科学核心的项目负责人和实验室成员。第二个目标是提供科学和财务指导和监督，包括与内部咨询委员会和外部科学咨询委员会。第三个目标是促进项目和核心成员之间以及更广泛的科学领域的沟通社区和公众。为了实现这些目标，该行政核心的领导者将与每个项目和科学核心的领导者。定期进行科学互动以交流思想和结果、内部咨询委员会和外部科学咨询委员会成员的反馈，以及监测进展的具体指标对于帮助发现新的基本机制至关重要潜在的细胞周期进程。
