Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: TP53 is a master tumor suppressor gene, mutated in approximately half of all human cancers. Given the many regulatory roles of the corresponding p53 protein, it is possible to infer loss of p53 activity - which may occur due to alterations in trans - from gene expression patterns. Several such alterations that phenocopy p53 loss are known, however additional ones may exist, but their identity and...
