title: Induction of the metastatic phenotype by transfection of the nuclear oncogene p53: increases in cytoplasmic diacylglycerol levels and reduction in class I major histocompatibility antigen expression are not sufficient to explain the changes in metastatic capacities.
abstract: Transfection of the oncogene encoding the nuclear protein p53 into a low-metastatic mouse carcinoma cell line resulted in enhanced metastatic capabilities in clones that showed increased p53 protein expression [Pohl J, Goldfinger N, Radler-Pohl A, Rotter V, Schirrmacher V (1988) Mol Cell Biol 8:2078-2081]. This effect seemed neither to be due to increase in cytoplasmic diacylglycerol levels nor to reduced cell-surface expression of class I major histocompatibility antigens.
