The protein encoded by the human proto-oncogene c-myc.
The proto-oncogene c-myc may play a role in controlling the growth and division of normal cells, and abnormalities of the gene have been implicated in the genesis of a substantial variety of human tumors. To facilitate further study of these issues, we developed antisera that permit the identification and isolation of the protein encoded by the human and other mammalian versions of c-myc. We fo...
متن کاملThe parafibromin tumor suppressor protein inhibits cell proliferation by repression of the c-myc proto-oncogene.
Parafibromin is a tumor suppressor protein encoded by HRPT2, a gene recently implicated in the hereditary hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor syndrome, parathyroid cancer, and a subset of kindreds with familial isolated hyperparathyroidism. Human parafibromin binds to RNA polymerase II as part of a PAF1 transcriptional regulatory complex. The physiologic targets of parafibromin and the mechanism by w...
متن کاملDevelopmental expression of c-kit, a proto-oncogene encoded by the W locus.
Developmental expression of the c-kit proto-oncogene, a receptor tyrosine kinase encoded by the W locus, was investigated by in situ hybridization in normal mouse embryos. Early after implantation transcripts were detectable only in the maternal placenta (6 1/2-7 1/2 days p.c.). Subsequently (8 1/2 days p.c.) numerous ectodermal (neural tube, sensory placodes) and endodermal (embryonic gut) der...
متن کاملMolecular-genetic analysis of myc and c-Ha-ras proto-oncogene alterations in human carcinoma.
The results of recent studies on the molecular biology of cancer suggest the abnormal expression of cellular proto-oncogenes in the process of carcinogenesis [1]. The activation of proto-oncogenes, i.e., their conversion into cellular oncogenes, is associated with gene structural alterations and mutations resulting in the unregulated production of oncoproteins, matched by deranged biological fu...
متن کاملTranscriptional trans-repression by the c-myb proto-oncogene product.
We report that the c-myb protein binds to another site, MBS-II, in the SV40 enhancer with low affinity. In co-transfection experiments with a c-myb expression plasmid, tandem repeats of the sequence containing the MBS-II site induced c-myb-dependent transcriptional repression. Results of mutational analyses of the sequence around the MBS-II site suggested that the c-myb protein represses transc...
