| 1 | 8910495 | Several observations suggest the 180-kDa protein is the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor: (i) C-20 reacted avidly with a 180-kDa protein immunoprecipitated by an antibody to the EGF receptor; (ii) an EGF receptor antibody detected a 180-kDa protein immunoprecipitated by C-20; (iii) the affinity purified EGF receptor was both immunoprecipitated and detected on immunoblots by the C-20 antibody but not another BRCA1 antibody; (iv) similar phosphopeptide maps were generated from the EGF receptor and the 180-kDa protein immunoprecipitated by C-20, and this peptide map was distinct from the 220-kDa phosphoprotein; and (v) the C-20 immunizing peptide bears sequence identity to the EGF receptor. |
| 2 | 9010238 | Four lines of evidence lead us to conclude that E2 induces BRCA1 primarily through an increase in DNA synthesis: (1) The kinetics and magnitude of induction are different from the directly E2 inducible gene, pS2; (2) Induction of BRCA1, but not pS2, is blocked by cycloheximide indicating that de novo protein synthesis is required; (3) Other hormonal and growth factor treatments that induce DNA synthesis have a similar effect, including IGF-1, EGF and DNA synthetic flares induced by tamoxifen and retinoic acid; (4) BRCA1 genomic fragments near the 5' end of the gene containing putative estrogen response elements fail to respond to E2 when transfected into breast cancer cell lines. |
