DNA/RNA

Exons are represented by solid blue rectangles and introns by black bars. The drawing is not in scale. The positions of the A and B domains, which contain the pocket domain, in the Rb2/p130 gene, are indicated.
Description
The gene is composed of 22 exons spanning in a region of 57.159 bp (Localized from 53,246,963 to 53,304,161 from pter).
Transcription
The sequence is supported by 286 sequences from 262 cDNA clones and produces, by alternative splicing, 9 different protein isoforms. The transcripts differ by truncation of the N-terminus, truncation of the C-terminus, presence or absence of a cassette exon, common exons with different boundaries.
Pseudogene
None
Proteins
Note
pRb2/p130,130 kDa retinoblastoma-associated protein, PRB2, P130, RBR-2

Description
pRb2/p130 belongs to the retinoblastoma (RB) family of proteins. Amino acids: 1139; Molecular Weight: 128356 Dalton. The phosphorylation on Ser-672 in G1 leads to its ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis.
Expression
pRb2/p130 is ubiquitously expressed in normal tissues.
Localisation
Nuclear
Function
pRb2/p130 acts as a tumor suppressor and it is a potent inhibitor of E2F-mediated trans-activation. pRb2/p130 may have a function in cell cycle regulation, proliferation and differentiation during human placental development.

Entity name
This oncosuppressor gene is involved in Breast Cancer, Burkitts lymphomas, Choroidal melanoma, Endometrial Cancer, Lung Cancer, Malignant Lymphomas, Mesothelioma, Glioblastoma, Ovarian Cancer, Oral malignant melanoma, Vulvar Carcinoma.
Note
Recent studies show a link between pRb2/p130 and chromatin-modifying enzymes in the regulation of estrogen receptor-alpha transcription. pRb2/p130 expression predicts outcome in squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus, lung, mouth and endometrium carcinomas. Analyses of gene expression profiles identified pRb2/p130 target genes in non-small-cell lung neoplasms. HIV-1/pRb2/p130 interaction may be a possible mechanism in the pathogenesis of AIDS-related lymphomas. pRb2/p130 and its truncated form might substitute Rb in mediating p53-induced cell cycle arrest in Rb(-/-) Saos2 cells. Some reports have shown that pRb2/p130 turn-over is regulated by Cdk-dependent G1 phosphorylation.
