Activation of Wild Type p53 Function by Its Mortalin-binding, Cytoplasmically Localizing Carboxyl Terminus Peptides
21 Sept 2005
Abstract excerpt
The Hsp70 family member mortalin (mot-2/mthsp70/GRP75) binds to a carboxyl terminus region of the tumor suppressor protein p53. By in vivo co-immunoprecipitation of mot-2 with p53 and its deletion mutants, we earlier mapped the mot-2-binding site of p53 to its carboxyl terminus 312-352 amino acid residues. In the present study we attempted to disrupt mot-2-p53 interactions by overexpression of short p53...
