Abstract excerpt
Inactivation of the tumor suppressor genes p53 and Rb are two of the most common genetic alterations in cancer cells. We use a mouse model to dissect the consequences of compromising the function of either of these genes on the maintenance of genomic stability. Thirteen cell lines established from skin tumors of mice expressing either the E6 or E7 oncoprotein of the human papillomavirus (HPV) type 16 under...
