Che-1/AATF (Che-1) was originally characterized as an interacting protein for RNA polymerase II. In addition to transcriptional regulation, the evidence suggests that Che-1 has a viral factor-like S phase promoting role in counteracting Rb repression to facilitate E2F-dependent transactivation during G(I)-S transition. Recently, Che-1 was found to play an important role in the DNA damage response and cell-cycle checkpoint control. Genetic studies in mice revealed that Che-1 is essential for preimplantation development and the establishment of embryonic gene expression.

Thus, Che-1 emerges as an important adaptor that connects transcriptional regulation, cell-cycle progression, checkpoint control, and apoptosis.

Abstract

Che-1/AATF (Che-1) was originally characterized as an interacting protein for RNA polymerase II. In addition to transcriptional regulation, the evidence suggests that Che-1 has a viral factor-like S phase promoting role in counteracting Rb repression to facilitate E2F-dependent transactivation during G(I)-S transition. Recently, Che-1 was found to play an important role in the DNA damage response and cell-cycle checkpoint control. Genetic studies in mice revealed that Che-1 is essential for preimplantation development and the establishment of embryonic gene expression. Importantly, several findings showed that Che-1 participates in inhibiting apoptotic process. Thus, Che-1 emerges as an important adaptor that connects transcriptional regulation, cell-cycle progression, checkpoint control, and apoptosis.
