Abstract excerpt
Wild-type adenovirus type 5 eliminates p53 through the E1B-55kDa and E4-34kDa gene products. Deletion or mutation of E1B-55kDa has long been thought to confer p53-selective replication of oncolytic viruses. We show here that infection with E1B-defective adenovirus mutants induces massive accumulation of p53, without obvious defects in p53 localization, phosphorylation, conformation and oligomerization....
