cycE/CCNE, Cyclin E: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
Cyclin E regulates multiple downstream molecules, such as the retinoblastoma susceptibility gene (RB1) and the transcription factor E2F.
Cyclin E (Cyclin E1 and Cyclin E2) is the key regulator of the late G1 → S-phase transition.
Cyclin E is a prognostic marker in breast cancer, its altered expression increased with the increasing stage and grade of the tumor.
Cyclin E is a regulatory protein that plays a critical role in the cell cycle, particularly in the transition from the G1 phase to the S phase. Its expression levels can significantly influence cancer progression and patient prognosis.

Cyclin E expression is frequently elevated in various cancers and is generally associated with poor prognosis. Its role in promoting cell cycle progression makes it a potential biomarker for tumor aggressiveness and patient outcomes.
