Abstract excerpt
The tumor suppressor gene p53 encodes a transcriptional activator that has two transactivation domains (TAD) located in its amino terminus. These two TAD can transactivate genes independently, and at least one TAD is required for p53 transactivation function. The 1st TAD (a.a. 1-40) is essential for the induction of numerous classical p53 target genes, while the second TAD (a.a. 41-61) suffices for tumor...
