Rates of mutation to growth factor autonomy and tumorigenicity differ in hematopoietic stem and precursor cells expressing the multilineage colony-stimulating factor gene.

abstract：:Adenovirus E1A pre-mRNA was used as a model to examine alternative 5' splice site selection during in vitro splicing reactions. Strong preference for the downstream 13S 5' splice site over the upstream 12S or 9S 5' splice sites was observed. However, the 12S 5' splice site was used efficiently when a mutant pre-mRNA l...
