Molecular cloning of a new transforming gene from a chemically transformed human cell line

Nature volume 311, pages 29–33 (1984)Cite this article

Abstract

Molecular cloning of the transforming gene from a chemically transformed human osteosarcoma-derived cell line enables the gene to be mapped to chromosome 7 (7p11.4–7qter) and by this criterion and by direct hybridization to be shown to be unrelated to known oncogenes.
