Transfection of four different mouse epidermal tumor cell DNAs into NIH 3T3 cells yielded neither morphologically altered foci nor anchorage independence. However, promotion-sensitive, but not promotion-insensitive, JB6 mouse epidermal cell lines were permissive for the expression of anchorage independence after transfection of DNA from three of these tumor cell lines. This transforming activity and the promotion-sensitive activity that confers sensitivity to promotion of transformation show differences in restriction enzyme sensitivity. In view of this difference and the differences in both recipient cells and 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate dependence of expression, it appears that the transforming activity and the promotion-sensitive activity are specified by different genes. The JB6 promotion-sensitive cell lines may be useful for detecting and cloning transforming genes that escape detection in the NIH 3T3 cell focus assay.
将四种不同的小鼠表皮肿瘤细胞DNA转染到NIH 3T3细胞中,既未产生形态改变的集落,也未产生不依赖贴壁生长的特性。然而,对促癌敏感(而非促癌不敏感)的JB6小鼠表皮细胞系,在转染其中三种肿瘤细胞系的DNA后,能够表达不依赖贴壁生长的特性。这种转化活性以及赋予转化对促癌敏感性的促癌敏感活性,在限制酶敏感性方面存在差异。鉴于这种差异以及在受体细胞和12 - O - 十四烷酰佛波醇 - 13 - 乙酸酯表达依赖性方面的差异,似乎转化活性和促癌敏感活性是由不同基因所决定的。JB6促癌敏感细胞系可能有助于检测和克隆那些在NIH 3T3细胞集落形成试验中无法检测到的转化基因。
