ABSTRACT:
The cDNA and amino acid sequences for a cellular apoptosis susceptibility (CAS) protein are used to detect expression and amplification of the CAS gene in normal and cancer cells. An antisense CAS gene sequence introduced into living cells inhibits CAS protein activity and thus prevents or inhibits apoptosis in the cells.
