High impact information on Elongin-B

Elongin A, the largest subunit of the elongin complex, is the transcriptionally active subunit, while the smaller elongin B and C subunits appear to act as regulatory subunits [1].
In this report, we show that the Elongin B ubiquitin-like domain is necessary and sufficient for interaction with Elongin C and for positive regulation of Elongin A transcriptional activity [2].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Elongin-B

Here, we report the molecular cloning of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae genomic DNA encoding Elongin C subunit and of Drosophila cDNAs encoding Elongin B and C subunits [3].
