Abstract excerpt
We have sequenced p53 in three colon cancer cell lines capable of autonomous proliferation. SNU-C1 and SNU-C4 cells, whose autonomous growth is dependent upon autocrine stimulation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), had wildtype p53 sequence of exons 4-9. In contrast, an EGFR ligand-independent cell line, SNU-C5, had heterozygous missense mutations affecting codons 218 (valine to leucine) and 248...
