ABSTRACT:
A cell lysis factor which is a modified fragment of the human glucocorticoid receptor. The modified fragment designated 398-465*, when transfected into and expressed in a host cell, effects cell lysis and cell death. A pharmaceutical composition having the modified fragment 398-465* or the encoded protein product may be used in treatment of proliferative diseases.
