Abstract excerpt
A peptide nucleic acid (PNA) complementary to a unique DNA sequence in the second exon of the human myc proto-oncogene was tested for its effects on transcription in colonic adenocarcinoma cells in which myc had been amplified and rearranged. A prominent rearrangement in this human cell line (COLO320-DM) involves the insertion of exon 1 of the PVT gene, which is normally located 57 kb downstream, into the first...
