Abstract excerpt
The adenovirus E1B-55-kDa protein binds and inactivates the tumor suppressor protein p53. However, the role of this interaction during infection is still poorly understood and was therefore examined here. Infection with a virus carrying the E1B-55-kDa mutation R239A, preventing the interaction with p53, led to the accumulation of p53. However, p53 target genes were not activated in the infected cells, although...
