what is the role of a mutation in the retinoblastoma gene mutation with reference to the cell cycle?

Re: oncogene
usmlefever3 - 11-23-08 13:39

retinoblastoma is a tumour supressor gene causing checkpoint on G1-S phase

Re: oncogene
anasarca0101 - 11-24-08 11:15

i thought Men1 is due to tumour suppressor gene menin on chromosome 11. and MEN2 is due to Ret proto-oncogene. Thus they are different.

Re: oncogene

hey thanks for rectifying. men1 is due to MEN1 gene..
