Description
Normal primary cultures of human thyroid follicular cells were transfected with a plasmid containing the SV40 early region large T encoding gene from mutant tsA58. Tight temperature dependence for growth is observed Nthy-ts1 cells grow at 33°C, but not at the restrictive temperature of 40.5°C. This SV40 mutant allows the study of oncogene action free of any interfering effects of SV40 large T antigen.
