Recent experiments have established that the c-myc oncogene encodes a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein that interacts with a specific intracellular partner, Max, and probably manifests its effects through transcriptional modulation. In addition, the range of biological functions attributed to expression of c-myc has grown to include not only transformation and mitogenesis but also cell death.
最近的实验证实,c-myc癌基因编码一种序列特异性DNA结合蛋白,该蛋白与特定的细胞内伴侣Max相互作用,并且可能通过转录调节发挥其作用。此外,归因于c-myc表达的生物学功能范围不断扩大,不仅包括转化和有丝分裂,还包括细胞死亡。
