Abstract excerpt
The p53, a pivotal tumor suppressor, regulates various cellular responses, including DNA repair and apoptosis. Normally, p53 levels are low due to murine double minute clone 2 (MDM2) mediated polyubiquitination. However, stress signals disrupt p53-MDM2 interaction, stabilizing p53 and activating target genes. Dysfunctional p53 is common in cancers, especially colorectal cancer (CRC), with TP53 mutations in 43% of...
