Abstract

See full text

The present invention provides methods of determining a putative agent that inhibits tumorigenesis in retinoblastoma protein deficient cells, the methods comprising determining whether the putative agent decreases phosphorylation of threonine residue 187 of p27, decreases S-phase kinase-associated protein 2 interaction with p27 having a phosphorylated threonine residue 187, or an increase in apoptosis of retinoblastoma protein deficient cells. The present invention also provides the agent, the pharmaceutical composition, and methods of inhibiting, preventing and treating tumorigenesis in retinoblastoma deficient cells, the method comprising administration of the agent that decreases phosphorylation of threonine residue 187 of p27 or the S-phase kinase-associated protein 2 interaction with p27 having a phosphorylated threonine residue 187.
