In addition to this localization, we observe a fusiform and linear staining pattern in the hepatoma cell line Hep3B and HeLa cells, using a previously published MxB antibody and exogenously expressed green fluorescent protein (GFP)/Myc-tagged constructs (Fig. 1a–d and Supplementary Fig. 1a–c). This evidence concerns the gene MYC and hepatocellular carcinoma.
