Abstract excerpt
The p53 tumor suppressor gene plays an important role during induction of apoptosis in cancer. In contrast, NF-kappaB prevents apoptosis in response to chemotherapeutic agents and is a critical regulator of cell survival. Despite the riches of information on the regulation of wild-type p53 function by phosphorylation, nothing is known about the modulation of mutant p53 activity by phosphorylation. Here we report...
