FIG. 7.

Expression of human p53 in insect cells blocks cell growth. S. frugiperda hsOpIAPpacR cells stably expressing Op-iap were transfected with plasmids expressing the indicated proteins. Cells were photographed 72 h after heat shock, using an Olympus IX50 microscope (A). Viable cells were counted in the presence of trypan blue (B). A plasmid expressing EH-CAT was used as a negative control and to balance plasmid DNA concentrations.
