Abstract:
Inhibitors of differentiation(Id) are negative regulators of basic helix-loop-helix(bHLH) type transcription factor.There are four related members of the Id family called Id-1,Id-2,Id-3 and(Id-4) in mammalian cells.Since the identification of Id proteins in 1990,the roles of Id in cell proliferation,differentiation,development,maturation,apoptosis and tumorigenesis have been widely investigated.This article focuses on the role of Id in tumorigenesis.
