Abstract excerpt
Sequence analysis of the retinoic acid receptor-alpha (RAR alpha) gene from a subline of HL-60 cells (RA-res) stably resistant to all-trans retinoic acid (RA) disclosed a single-base change in codon number 411, the same C to T transition previously reported in an independently selected HL-60 RA resistant clone by Robertson et al (Blood 80:1885, 1992). This mutation eliminates a FokI restriction endonuclease site....
