This study was undertaken to analyze the effect of wild-type p53 transfection on the growth potential of a human lung cancer cell line Hut292DM expressing endogenous wild-type p53. Transfection efficiencies obtained with either the wild-type or a mutant p53 complementary DNA revealed a significant decrease in the number of colonies obtained with the wild-type p53 as compared to the mutant p53 complementary DNA (27%) or control vector DNA only (20%), suggesting that wild-type p53 inhibited the growth of Hut292DM cells. A series of wild-type and mutant p53 transfection clones were then analyzed for the presence and expression of the exogenous p53 gene. Polymerase chain reaction amplification revealed that 98% of mutant p53 transfection clones analyzed contained the exogenous p53 gene as opposed to 47% for wild-type p53 clones. The majority of mutant p53 clones expressed high levels of exogenous p53 mRNA and protein as analyzed by Northern and Western blots, respectively. In contrast, all wild-type p53 clones analyzed failed to express exogenous p53 mRNA transcript or protein of a normal size. Aberrant-size p53 mRNA was detected in two wild-type p53 clones (X833.W2 and W18), and Western blot analysis revealed that these clones expressed truncated p53 proteins (M(r) 45,000 and 33,000 respectively). No difference in proliferation rates in vitro or in tumorigenic potential in nude mice were observed between mutant p53 clones or control cell lines. In contrast, a wild-type p53 clone (X833.W2) exhibited a significantly reduced tumorigenic potential in nude mice, whereas its in vitro proliferation rate was comparable to parental Hut292DM cells. The data indicate that exogenous expression of wild-type p53 is incompatible with Hut292DM lung cancer cell proliferation in vitro and suggest that p53-mediated growth control in vitro and in vivo may be dissociated and exerted by separate domains of the p53 protein.

D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
