From previous studies, it has been determined that the phosphorylation state and activity of Rb are controlled by a balance of kinase and phosphatase activity<ref name=Stone>PMID:15335873</ref>, in which Cdks phosphorylate Rb from late G1 to mitosis and the enzyme protein phosphatase 1 (PP1c) dephosphorylates Rb for mitotic exit<ref name=Hirschi>PMID: 20694007</ref>.  An enzyme-docking site for PP1c was determined to overlap with the docking site for Cdks through a crystal structure, initiating studies on phosphatase and kinase competition for the docking site.

Studies determined a biochemical mechanism where directly competing kinases and phosphatase activity regulates Rb phosphorylation and activity, but there has not been an established study that defined a mechanism that controlled the outcome of the competition between each enzyme<ref name=Hirschi>PMID: 20694007</ref>.
