By integrating E2F1 ChIP-seq data, RNA-seq profiling from RB samples and RNA-seq profiling upon E2F1 knockdown, together with pathway analysis, literature searching and experimental validation, we identified Cyclin-dependent kinases regulatory subunit 2 (CKS2) as a novel regulator in regulating tumor-associated phenotypes in RB. This evidence concerns the gene CKS2 and neoplasm.
