摘要
Members of the Myc family of transcription factors are key regulators of cell proliferation, and excessive levels of Myc lead to tumor formation. Mad family proteins are related to Myc, but they antagonize the oncogenic activity of Myc in cell-culture assays. Here, we examine current models of Mad function and the relationship between Mad and Myc in cell proliferation, differentiation and tumorigenesis.
