Abstract excerpt
DNA damage can lead to mutations that can alter the function of oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes, thus promoting the development of cancer. p53 plays a multifaceted and complex role in the DNA damage response and cancer progression and is known as the 'guardian of the gene'. When DNA damage occurs, p53 is activated through a series of post-translational modifications, which stabilize the protein and enhance...
