Abstract excerpt
The p53 protein plays active roles in the physiological regulation of cell cycle as well as in cancer developments. In more than half of human cancers, the protein is inactivated by mutations located primarily in its DNA-binding domain (DBD), and some mutations located in the β-sandwich region of DBD are reported to decrease p53-DNA binding affinities. To understand the long-range correlation between p53...
