Mitotic Infidelity and Centrosome Duplication Errors in Cells Overexpressing Tripeptidyl-Peptidase II
15 Feb 2005
Abstract excerpt
The oligopeptidase tripeptidyl-peptidase II (TPP II) is up-regulated Burkitt's lymphoma (BL) cells that overexpress the c-myc proto-oncogene and is required for their growth and survival. Here we show that overexpression of TPP II induces accelerated growth and resistance to apoptosis in human embryonic kidney 293 cells. This correlates with the appearance of multiple chromosomal aberrations, numerical and...
