Abstract excerpt
The cellular content of mutant p53 and hsp72 proteins following gamma-ray irradiation, UV irradiation, and heat treatment was studied in A-7 cells, a human glioblastoma cell line. A-7 was found to contain a mutant p53 gene in which the arginine codon at position 175 was substituted by a histidine codon. Although the p53 gene was mutant, the phenotype of the p53 protein appeared wild-type since the cellular...
