Induction of p53-dependent Activation of the Human Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen Gene in Chromatin by Ionizing Radiation
1 Nov 2003
Abstract excerpt
A human fibroblast cell line with conditional p53 expression displayed a p53-dependent increase in both the protein and mRNA levels of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) after exposure to ionizing radiation (IR). The combination of p53 induction and IR cooperated to activate a transiently expressed human PCNA promoter-reporter gene via a p53-responsive element. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays with...
