Abstract excerpt
A polymerase chain reaction method was carried out to address the possible presence of estrogen receptor (ER) mutations in murine transformed cell lines. The segment of ER cDNA coding the C and D domains was amplified and cloned into pUC 19. Mammary carcinoma cell line (SC-3) did not show any mutation in this segment. However, the sequence analysis of ER in the Leydig cell line (B-1 F) revealed a single base...
