Prostate cancer is the most common cause of cancer among men in the United States, and the second most common cause of cancer-related death, accounting for significant morbidity and mortality. This dissertation describes the genomic landscape of prostate cancer from multiple angles to identify mechanisms of disease heterogeneity amongst patients....
E2F-2 is a Retinoblastoma (Rb)-regulated transcription factor induced during terminal erythroid maturation. Cyclin E-mediated Rb hyper-phosphorylation induces E2F transcriptional activator functions. E2F-2-loss causes reduced peripheral red blood cell (RBC) counts, without altering relative abundances of erythroblast subpopulations. To determine how E2F-2 regulates RBC production, we comprehensively studied erythropoiesis using knockout...
