Abstract excerpt
A polymorphism in the nucleic acid sequence encoding the signal peptide of the human prepro-vasopressin (AVP) has been reported in an AVP producing small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) cell line. The difference predicts expression in tumor cells of a variant signal peptide with Pro for Leu 11. To cla...
