Overexpression of <i>MYC</i> causes <i>p53</i> -dependent G <sub>2</sub> arrest of normal fibroblasts
29 Aug 2000
Abstract excerpt
Overexpression of the proto-oncogene MYC has been implicated in the genesis of diverse human cancers. One explanation for the role of MYC in tumorigenesis has been that this gene might drive cells inappropriately through the division cycle, leading to the relentless proliferation characteristic of the neoplastic phenotype. Herein, we report that the overexpression of MYC alone cannot sustain the division cycle of...
