Differential genomic susceptibility in malignancy correlates with changes in ATATAT DNA-binding proteins.

Abstract excerpt

Accesibility to DNA in the nucleus is important for the regulation of gene expression and for the effect of DNA-modifying drugs. We have now studied differential genome susceptibility in normal melanocytes and the corresponding malignant melanoma. DNA hypersensitivity assays revealed a markedly lesser degradation in melanoma nuclei compared to that in melanocytes. Cross-linking of DNA to nuclear proteins by...
