Comparing Different Linear Expression Systems
... Using the beta-estradiol regulated system: This system works by adding a vector that makes a fusion protein, under a promoter of moderate strength. The fusion protein contains the beginning of the Gal4 gene, the middle of the hER gene (the beta-estradiol binding part), and the end of the VP16 gene. ...

Genetic Mutations
... If a point mutation occurs in a proto-oncogene it can form an oncogene. This can stimulate excessive cell division, leading to the formation of a tumor. If a point mutation occurs in a tumor suppressor gene it can become inactivated. This allows the rate of cell division to increase unregulated. ...
