Abstract excerpt
Tumor suppressor p53 induces the cellular response to DNA damage mainly by regulating expression of its downstream target genes. The human securin is an anaphase inhibitor, preventing premature chromosome separation through inhibition of separase activity. It is also known as the product of the human pituitary tumor-transforming gene, pttg, a proto-oncogene. Here we report that the expression of human securin is...
