Abstract excerpt
The pCMV4 plasmid containing the cancer-promoting gene, c-erbB2/neu, was cotransfected into the human hepatocarcinoma cell line 7721 with the pcDNA3 vector, which contains the 'neo' selectable marker. Several clones showing stable expression of c-erbB2/neu were established and characterized by determination of c-erbB2/neu mRNA and its encoded protein p185. Expression of Lewis antigens and...
