Presence of a Potent Transcription Activating Sequence in the p53 Protein
31 Aug 1990
Abstract excerpt
The p53 gene is frequently mutated in a wide variety of human cancers. However, the role of the wild-type p53 gene in growth control is not known. Hybrid proteins that contain the DNA binding domain of yeast GAL4 and portions of p53 have been used to show that the p53 protein contains a transcription-activating sequence that functions in both yeast and mammalian cells. The NH2-terminal 73 residues of p53...
