Abstract excerpt
The p53 tumor suppressor gene is mutated in around 50% of all human tumors. Most mutations inactivate p53's specific DNA binding, resulting in failure to activate transcription of p53 target genes. As a consequence, mutant p53 is unable to trigger a p53-dependent biological response, that is cell...
