Abstract excerpt
The peptide epitope FRHSVV is cryptic in wild-type p53 and is exposed in many types of mutant p53 molecules isolated from various tumors. Mutant p53 marked by this epitope abrogates a tumor-suppressor function of wild-type p53 and possibly contributes to the transforming potential of other oncogenic processes. We report here the construction of a single-chain scFv antibody gene library derived from the mRNA of a...
