<div><p>(A) Anchorage-independent growth of NIH-3T3 cells expressing various <i>EGFR</i> alleles as mean number of colonies ± standard deviation (bar graph, above). The lanes (below) show EGFR and actin immunoblots of whole cell lysates from NIH-3T3 subclones plated in soft agar. EGF (10 ng/ml) was added to the top agar where indicated.</p>
<p>(B) Tumorigenicity of NIH-3T3 cells stably expressing the indicated <i>EGFR</i> alleles in nude mice. Mean tumor size ± standard deviation was determined 3–4 wk after subcutaneous inoculation into nude mice (<i>n</i> = 6 per cell line).</p></div
