In a screen for genes with oncogenic potential expressed by the murine B6SUtA 1 myeloid
progenitor cell line, we isolated a 2.5-kilobase pair cDNA whose expression causes strong
morphological transformation and deregulated proliferation of NIH 3T3 cells. The
transforming cDNA encodes a truncated protein (designated Lsc) with a region of sequence
similarity to the product of the lbc oncogene. This region includes the tandem Dbl homology
and pleckstrin homology domains that are hallmarks of the Dbl-like proteins, a family of …
