Abstract excerpt
The core domain of the tumor suppressor p53 has low thermodynamic stability, and many oncogenic mutations cause it to denature rapidly at body temperature. We made a series of core domain mutants that are significantly less or more stable than wild type to investigate effects of stability on the transcriptional activity and levels of native full-length p53 in H1299 mammalian cells. The levels of transcriptionally...
