#Section 3: Genetics, Cellular and Molecular Biology

When E2Fs are bound to Rb, not only are they transcriptionally inactive, but they also function to repress transcription by recruiting chromatin-modifying enzymes that promote deacetylation and methylation of specific histone lysines.

Phosphorylation on multiple sites by G1 CDKs blocks Rb from associating with E2F and promotes its export out of the nucleus.
