Abstract excerpt
Prolonged expression of a ras oncogene in primary cells accelerates the natural process of senescence. This ras-induced permanent growth arrest is bypassed in cells expressing the simian virus 40 large T antigen. Previously we showed that two regions of T antigen, a region consisting of the N-terminal 147 amino acids and a region consisting of amino acids 251 to 708 (T251-708), independently overcome ras-induced...
