Recent experiments have established that the c-myc oncogene encodes a sequence-
specific DNA-binding protein that interacts with a specific intracellular partner, Max, and
probably manifests its effects through transcriptional modulation. In addition, the range of
biological functions attributed to expression of c-myc has grown to include not only
transformation and mitogenesis but also cell death.
