Abstract excerpt
Mutations in p53 protein, especially in the DNA-binding domain, is one of the major hallmarks of cancer. The R273 position is a DNA-contact position and has several oncogenic variants. Surprisingly, cancer patients carrying different mutant variants of R273 in p53 have different survival rates, indicating that the DNA-contact inhibition may not be the sole reason for reduced survival with R273 variants. Here, we...
