CANCER RESEARCH
At the Max Planck Institute for Bio-
chemistry in Martinsried, Germany,
Jan Eickhoff analyzes DNA prepara-
tions via gel electrophoresis.
On a UV light box he cuts
small sec-
tions containing DNA
for receptor
tyrosine kinases
from the gel.
These enzymes play a role in cancer
growth;
an increase of them can lead
to cancer.
