Erratum to: Cell Mol Life Sci (2013) 70:581–597 DOI 10.1007/s00018-012-1063-9

In the original publication of the article one of the references included in the review “Tumour suppressive pathways in the control of neurogenesis” was not correctly discussed.

The sentence on page 586, “Retinoblastoma phosphorylation by CDKs relieves repression of E2F transcriptional activity, thus promoting cell cycle progression [139, 140].” should read:

“Rb phosphorylation by Cyclin/CDKs has been proposed to relieve repression of E2F transcriptional activity and promote cell cycle progression, but this concept is currently being revisited mainly through the work of Cooper and collaborators [139, 140], thus suggesting that Rb regulation is more complex than previously thought.”
