Abstract excerpt
We report that a p53 segment (p53 del 1-293) containing the oligomerization domain interferes with the functions of wild-type p53. Wild-type p53 inhibits transcription mediated by human cytomegalovirus (CMV) immediate-early promoter significantly; however, co-expression of p53 del 1-293 drastically reduces this repression. We show that wild-type p53 forms hetero-oligomers with p53 del 1-293 suggesting that the...
