[Study of transcription of the DNA sequence of a mts271 clone in various tumor and normal mouse cells]. / Issledovanie transcriptsii posledovatelnostei DNK klona mts271 v razlichnykh opukholevykh i normal'nykh kletkakh myshi.

Transcription of the mts271 gene was studied in 27 mouse cell tumor lines. Transcripts of the gene have been found in 6 out of 7 different metastatic lines. No transcription of the gene has been observed in non-metastatic tumor lines. In normal tissues, specific gene DNA was only found in hemopoietic cells--in bone marrow, spleen, thymus and lymphocytes. Transcription of the gene mts271 is not dependent on the level of DNA methylation.
