Molecular analysis of the adenomatous polyposis coli gene in sarcomas, hematological malignancies and noncolonic, neoplastic tissues
Somatic mutations of the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene have been frequently found in sporadic colorectal tumors, and the frequency of such mutations remain constant as tumors progress from benign adenoma...

Growth retardation and neonatal lethality in mice with a homozygous deletion in the C-terminal domain of RNA polymerase II
The C-terminal domain (CTD) of the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II consists of tandem repeats of the consensus heptapeptide YSPTSPS. Deletion studies in tissue culture cells have indicated that the CTD p...

Defective TGF-β signaling sensitizes human cancer cells to rapamycin
mTOR, the mammalian target of rapamycin, is a critical target of survival signals in many human cancers. In the absence of serum, rapamycin induces apoptosis in MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells. However, i...
