Abstract excerpt
Expression of the Simian virus 40 (SV40) early region in human cells results in the induction of chromosomal aberrations and polyploidy, and in transformation. To understand how genetic damage occurs and what role it plays in transformation, human diploid fibroblasts and embryonic kidney cells were transfected with plasmids encoding wild type or mutant forms of the viral early region, and the neo gene. Clones...
