Abstract excerpt
We have found that the ectopic expression of a specific gene's 3' untranslated region leads to the dose dependent loss, relative to gene copy number, of that specific mRNA and protein, as well as an associated protein, in a eukaryotic cell line. The loss of these proteins from the eukaryotic cell line also results in specific phenotypic changes in these cells, suggesting that we have created a dominant negative...
