Abstract excerpt
Following DNA damage, wild-type p53 increases and mediates the multiple cellular responses for the repair of DNA damage or apoptosis. Inactivation of p53 by single-amino-acid substitutions contributes to the malignant phenotype and confers resistance to therapy. Among tumor-derived p53 mutants, class I mutants still retain a native-like three-dimensional structure, whereas class II mutants have unfolded...
