An African-Specific Variant of TP5 3 Reveals PADI4 as a Regulator of p53-Mediated Tumor Suppression
4 May 2023
Abstract excerpt
TP53 is the most frequently mutated gene in cancer, yet key target genes for p53-mediated tumor suppression remain unidentified. Here, we characterize a rare, African-specific germline variant of TP53 in the DNA-binding domain Tyr107His (Y107H). Nuclear magnetic resonance and crystal structures reveal that Y107H is structurally similar to wild-type p53. Consistent with this, we find that Y107H can suppress tumor...
