Abstract excerpt
DNA binding is crucial to the protective role of the tumor suppressor protein p53, a nuclear phosphoprotein and transcription factor. The mutant human p53 protein S392E is a phosphorylation mimic that has been previously demonstrated to represent an "activated" form of p53 in both in vivo and in vitro assays [Hupp and Lane (1995) J. Biol. Chem. 270, 18165; Hao et al. (1996) J. Biol. Chem. 271, 29380]. Herein, we...
