Missense mutations within the central DNA binding region of p53 are the most prevalent mutations found in human cancer. Numerous studies indicate that 'hot-spot' p53 mutants (which comprise approximately 30% of human p53 gene mutations) are largely devoid of transcriptional activity. However, a g...
