Abstract excerpt
Functional inactivation of tumor susceptibility gene tsg101 leads to cellular transformation and tumorigenesis in mice. While human TSG101 is located in a region where frequent loss of heterozygosity can be detected in a variety of cancers, no genomic deletion in TSG101 gene has been reported, casting a doubt on the role of TSG101 as a classical tumor suppressor. Some studies have revealed that TSG101 is a...
