    Background
    Phospho-p130 (Ser672) refers to the retinoblastoma-related protein p130 (RBL2), a crucial tumor suppressor of the pocket protein family (including pRb and p107) that enforces G0/G1 cell cycle arrest by binding and repressing E2F transcription factors. p130 contains conserved N-terminal, spacer, and C-terminal regions, featuring a large A/B pocket domain (the cyclin-binding motif) and multiple phosphorylation sites targeted by cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). Among these, Ser672 in the C-terminus is a CDK4/6-specific phosphorylation site pivotal for proteasomal degradation. During the late G1/S phase, phosphorylation at Ser672 by CDK4/6 marks p130 for recognition by the F-box protein Skp2, a component of the SCF^Skp2 ubiquitin ligase complex. This enables p130 polyubiquitination and rapid proteasomal turnover, independently of CDK2 activity. As a result, p130-mediated repression of E2F-responsive genes is relieved, allowing S-phase entry, DNA replication, and cell proliferation, while terminating the growth-suppressive function of p130. In quiescent G0 cells, hypophosphorylated p130 forms stable complexes with E2F4/5-DP1 to silence proliferation-associated genes; phosphorylation at Ser672 dynamically lowers p130 levels as cells re-enter the cycle. Dysregulation of the CDK4/6-Skp2-p130 axis or p130 mutations can stabilize hyperphosphorylated forms and disrupt cell cycle checkpoints, promoting uncontrolled proliferation and cancer development.
