Regulation of p53 by the mitotic surveillance/stopwatch pathway: implications in neurodevelopment and cancer

Abstract excerpt

) plays diverse roles in human development and disease. While best known for its role in tumor suppression, p53 signaling also influences mammalian development by triggering cell fate decisions in response to a wide variety of stresses. After over 4 decades of study, a new pathway that triggers p53 activation in response to mitotic delays was recently identified. Termed the mitotic surveillance or mitotic...
