This study investigates the role of DCAF1 in amplifying Vpr-induced cell cycle arrest specifically in the G2 phase. Results demonstrate a potentiation effect when DCAF1 interacts with Vpr, leading to an extended arrest in G2. The findings shed light on the molecular mechanisms underlying this process.
