Abstract excerpt
Posttranslational modification of p53 is a critical event in regulating the expression of its target genes. p53 is acetylated at lysine 120 (K120) by acetyltranferases Tip60 (KAT5) and hMOF (KAT8) in response to DNA damage. Identification of cofactors for these two enzymes will shed light on the mechanism by which cells make a choice between cell-cycle arrest and apoptosis. It has been reported that ING5, a...
