HeLa cervical carcinoma cells were treated with conjugated Antp-SMCC-cytochrome c (cytochrome c chemically conjugated to Antp) or with non-conjugated Antp and cytochrome c. Sensitivity to the treatments was determined by the clonogenic assay (proliferation) and by immunoblot analysis (apoptosis activation). Here, CYCS is linked to cervical carcinoma.
