Abstract excerpt
Expression of the normal p53 gene promotes cell differentiation, maturation and apoptosis. The mutant p53 gene, which does not function normally, is frequently expressed at elevated levels in tumor cells [for review see Lane, D.P. & Benchimol, S. (1990). Genes Dev., 4, 1-8]. We have analysed the expression of and mutational change in the p53 gene in the peripheral blood cells of 49 primary acute myeloid leukemia...
