Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Mutations in mitotic checkpoint genes have been detected in several human cancers, which exhibit chromosome instability. We wanted to know whether mutation of hBub1 could occur in transformed human embryo lung fibroblasts (HELF) cells induced by a chemical carcinogen. METHODS: HELF cells were transformed by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguaridine (MNNG), and three flasks of transformed HELF cells (named...
