Abstract excerpt
Increasing evidence indicates that p53 is a transcriptional trans-activator through its sequence-specific DNA binding domain. Tumor-derived p53 mutations disrupt the trans-activation ability mainly due to loss of its sequence-specific DNA binding. Using both yeast and mammalian cell assays, the effect of p53 mutations in the carboxy terminal portion was investigated in order to address how p53 mutations outside...
