This gene encodes a member of a family of transcription factors
that heterodimerize with E2F proteins to enhance their DNA-binding activity
and promote transcription from E2F target genes. The encoded protein
functions as part of this complex to control the transcriptional activity of
numerous genes involved in cell cycle progression from G1 to S phase.
Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Pseudogenes of
this gene are found on chromosomes 1, 15, and X.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2009]
Vaquerizas 2009 TF classification
"a" Has direct evidence of TF function;
"b" Has evidence for an orthologous TF;
"c" contains likely DBDs, but has no functional evidence;
"x" is an unlikely TF such as predicted gene, genes with likely non-specific DBDs or that have function outside transcription;
"other" category contains proteins without clear DBDs they curated from external sources.

Initial Assessment 1a1 Protein has a high confidence PWM (HT-SELEX, PBM or B1H model) or there is a crystal structure that supports sequence specific DNA binding;
1a2 There is high confidence data for a close ortholog (as defined in CisBP);
2a1 There is lower confidence direct evidence, such as a Jaspar, Hocomoco or Transfac model;
2a2 There is lower confidence evidence for an close ortholog;
3a There is decent circumstantial evidence for its role as a TF or not;
4a Two or more datasets predict it as a TF;
5a One of the source datasets predicts is as a TF
