Abstract

Experiments designed to define the differences between the 21 oncogene of DNA isolated from human bladder cancer cells and its corresponding proto-oncogene are described herein. Also described is the determination of the difference between the rat neu oncogene and its corresponding proto-oncogene. Also described are nucleic acid probes reactive with regions of the proto-oncogene or oncogene, as are methods for their use in detecting the occurrence of the two types of genes. Antibodies specific for gene products encoded by the neu genes are also described, as are methods for their use.
