[Isolation and characteristics of clones complementary to mRNA of the murine cellular tumor antigen p53]. / Vydelenie i kharakteristika klonov, komplementarnykh mRNK myshinogo kletochnogo opukholevogo antigena p53.

43 cDNA clones specific for murine cellular tumor antigen p53 were isolated from a library constructed using 17S fraction of mRNA from the SV40 transformed murine fibroblasts (SVT2). These clones contain the whole coding region of p53 mRNA and the most of non-translated sequences. A plasmid containing 1.8 kb insert of p53 cDNA was constructed. The p53 specific insert in this plasmid was colinear with p53 mRNA, as revealed by S1 nuclease analysis. 5'-region of the p53 gene comprising non-translated and promoter areas was cloned from the mouse genomic library. A combined clone containing promoter and the whole region, corresponding to p53 mRNA has been constructed.
