Explanation:
A proto-oncogene is a<em> normal gene that usually can stimulate growth and differentiation but if it mutates can become an oncogene and cause cancer</em>. In order to test this gene, you can <em>activate it by promoting its mutation with a DNA amplification (like the one you did in the question) or a chromosomal translocation,</em> then you can observe it in a culture <em>if there's cell transformation you can confirm your hypothesis.</em>
I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
