| Abstract: | p53 is a transformation-related protein that is encoded by the cellular genome and is synthesized at elevated levels in a wide range of different cell line types and in primary tumors of various species. By using several independently established anti-p53 monoclonal antibodies, it was possible to distinguish between p53 of mouse origin and p53 of Chinese hamster origin. By analysis of a series of mouse X Chinese hamster hybrid cell lines containing various mouse chromosomes, we mapped the p53 gene product to mouse chromosome 11. |
