Abstract excerpt
Mechanisms responsible for the lack of thyroid-specific differentiation markers in Ha-ras transformed FRTL-5 cells have been investigated. In vivo cell labeling and immunoprecipitation demonstrate that phosphorylation of the thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1) is clearly reduced in thyroid cells transformed with the Ha-ras oncogene. Fingerprinting analysis of phosphotryptic peptides from FRTL-5 and...
