Abstract excerpt
Neuroblastoma-derived tumor cells, unlike cells from other tumor types, characteristically express a wildtype but cytoplasmically sequestered p53 protein. To ascertain whether the p53 in these cells retained any physiological activity, we inactivated it in SK-N-SH cells, a neuroblastoma-derived cell line, by introducing the human papilloma virus type 16 E6 expression plasmid. Parent SK-N-SH cell cultures are...
