Abstract
The invention relates to methods for high-throughput screening for compounds that modulate cell growth or promoter activity. The invention provides the use of cell lines with properly regulated promoter-reporter expression, suitable for high-throughput screening. More particularly, the invention relates to such screening to identify compounds that affect cell growth and/or that modulate the effect of cell cycle arrest on the function of a promoter that is responsive to cell cycle inhibition.
