| Abstract | Transcription factor E2F binds to cellular promoters of certain growth- and cell cycle-controlling genes and forms distinct heteromeric complexes with other nuclear proteins. We show here that alpha and beta interferons (alpha, beta) and interleukin-6 abolished the E2F-containing DNA-binding complexes in Daudi Burkitt lymphoma cells and in M1 myeloblastic cells, which responded to the cytokines by suppression of c-myc transcription. Time kinetics studies showed that the abolishment of E2F complexes coincided with reduction of c-myc expression and that both molecular events preceded the cell cycle block in G0/G1 phase. In contrast, the pattern of E2F complexes remained unchanged in an interferon-treated growth-resistant Daudi cell mutant that displayed relaxed regulation of c-myc. All of the DNA-binding E2F complexes, including those containing the retinoblastoma protein (pRB), cyclin A-p33cdk2, and the free forms of E2F, were reduced by interferons or interleukin-6. Their abolishment was unperturbed by pharmacological treatments that alleviated the cyclin A and pRB responses to interferon. Thus, changes in cyclin A expression and pRB phosphorylation are not primary events that influence the pattern of E2F responses to cytokines. Addition of EDTA to cell extracts of interferon-treated Daudi cells restored the DNA-binding activity of E2F, resulting in the appearance of a single E2F complex that exclusively contained pRB. It is suggested that the regulation of E2F by growth-inhibitory cytokines that induce cell cycle exit takes place at the level of the DNA-binding activity, and by that mean it differs basically from the phase-specific regulation of E2F in cycling cells. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
