BACKGROUND: Wild type p53-induced phosphatase 1 (Wip1), encoded by the protein phosphatase magnesium dependent 1 delta (PPM1D), inhibits p53. PPM1D amplification has been reported in breast cancer. Breast cancer can sometimes develop without a tumor protein 53 (TP53) mutation. In these cases, the p53 pathway might be disrupted by alternative mechanisms, and Wip1 is reported to be a key molecule involved....
