概要 Mammalian cells respond to ionizing radiation (IR) with transient cell cycle arrest and induction of apoptosis. Here we show that IR increases the expression of the E2F-1 transcription factor and the entry of cells into S phase. E2F-1 transactivation function is inhibited by cyclin A-kinase to ensure orderly progression through S phase. However, in contrast to proliferating cells, IR treatment results in down-regulation of cyclin A-kinase. Expression of a dominant negative form of the E2F heterodimeric partner DP-1 confirmed the involvement of E2F in IR-induced S-phase entry. These findings also support opposing signals involving the induction of E2F and the down-regulation of cyclin A-kinase in the IR response.
