Description
Description
The E2F/DP family of transcription factors are sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins that regulate transcription. The functional E2F are transcriptional heterodimers composed of two subunits, E2F and DP. (Adapted from FBrf0128583).
Notes on Group

The E2F subunit includes two genes E2f1 and E2f2, while the DP subunit includes one gene Dp (FBrf0128583).
