Abstract excerpt
Burkitt's lymphomas (BL) are characterized by the constitutive expression of c-Myc protein. In total, 50-60% of all BL cells carry mutant c-Myc proteins. Using a mouse model of spontaneously immortalized pro-B-lymphocytes (Ba/F3), we have investigated genomic instability mediated by the conditional expression of either wild-type (WT) or deletion box II Delta106-Myc proteins. We found that both proteins mediate...
