Functional analysis of the AUG- and CUG-initiated forms of the c-Myc protein.

Abstract excerpt

Activation of the c-myc proto-oncogene by chromosomal translocation or proviral insertion frequently results in the separation of the c-myc coding region from its normal regulatory elements. Such rearrangements are often accompanied by loss or mutation of c-myc exon 1 sequences. These genetic alterations do not affect synthesis of the major c-myc protein, p64, which is initiated from the first AUG codon in exon...
