c-myc and bcl-2 modulate p53 function by altering p53 subcellular trafficking during the cell cycle.
21 Jun 1994
Abstract excerpt
We have studied the ability of c-myc and bcl-2 oncogenes to modulate p53 function. Our studies show that coincident expression of human Bcl-2 protein with p53 prolongs survival of murine erythroleukemia cells. This effect was associated with a loss of the G1 specificity of p53-mediated cell cycle arrest. Furthermore, we found that the c-myc and bcl-2 genes cooperate to inhibit p53 functions. Coexpression of bcl-2...
