Abstract
The content of proinsulin mRNA sequences was measured in a cultured cell line established from a transplantable hamster islet cell tumor, by hybridization with proinsulin cDNA. The cells cultured in vitro were found to contain a significant amount of proinsulin mRNA sequences, compared with non-insulin-producing hamster tissues, and seem to be a useful system for the study of insulin gene expression.Entities:
