This is in contrast with the results of Anand et al (2002), who found overexpression in 4 out of 13 cell lines, but is in agreement with previous results in our lab where we found most transformed cell lines to express eEF1A2 (Tomlinson et al, 2005) and the study by Joseph et al (2004) showing eEF1A2 expression in nine out of 10 cancer cell lines examined. This evidence concerns the gene EEF1A2 and cancer.
