Abstract excerpt
The v-Erb A oncoprotein of avian erythroblastosis virus is derived from c-Erb A, a hormone-activated transcription factor. Notably, v-Erb A has sustained multiple mutations relative to c-Erb A and functions as a constitutive transcriptional repressor. We report here an analysis of the contributions of these different mutations to v-Erb A function. Our experiments demonstrate that two amino-acid differences...
