## Abstract In doubleβstrand DNA damage repair, nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ) is more errorβprone than homologous recombination repair (HRR), indicating that the relative prevalence of NHEJ may lead to more incorrect repair and thus to increases in chromosome damage. If DNA damage is extensive a

To assess the potential relationship between p53 and p16 proteins in the cellular response to stress, we have examined the levels of these proteins in a series of human tumor cell lines after treatment with either ionizing radiation or hyperthermia. We found that cells with abnormal radiationinduced
Prostate tumor cells (PC-3) were transduced with defective, recombinant adenovirus containing a fusion gene encoding the Escherichia coli cytosine deaminase and herpes simplex virus type-1 thymidine kinase under the control of a cytomegalovirus promoter. Expression levels of the fusion protein were
