MDM2 regulates vascular endothelial growth factor mRNA stabilization in hypoxia.

abstract：:A cDNA clone which encodes a truncation form of the gamma subtype of the retinoic acid receptor (RAR gamma) has been isolated. The mutant RAR gamma (RAR gamma Bm382) has lost its 65 C-terminal amino acids, thus truncating a part of the dimerization and activation domains. By using a reverse transcription-coupled PCR t...
