ABSTRACT:
A cDNA encodes p107; a cell contains recombinant p107-encoding DNA; and substantially all of the cells of a nonhuman mammal contain recombinant p107-encoding DNA. Also, a method for diagnosing a condition of tumorigenicity in a subject, includes the steps of obtaining a tissue sample from the subject and detecting the presence of non wild-type p107-encoding gene in the sample, or detecting the absence of wild-type p107-encoding gene in the sample; or extracting DNA from the sample and detecting the presence of non wild-type p107-encoding gene or the absence of wild-type p107-encoding gene in the DNA. Also, a nucleic acid probe is complementary to a portion of a human mutant p107 gene.
