Infrequent mutations of the activating transcription factor-2 gene in human lung cancer, neuroblastoma and breast cancer.

Abstract excerpt

The activating transcription factor 2 (ATF-2) gene, which encodes a transcription factor involved in multiple intracellular signal transduction pathways, is located on human chromosome 2q32, which is a common region of LOH in human lung cancer. In neuroblastoma and breast cancer, a high incidence of LOH was detected on chromosome 2q. Recently we found that breast cancer is frequently developed in heterozygous...
