Abstract excerpt
Transforming mutants of the p53 tumor suppressor gene can positively regulate transcription from several promoters that do not contain known p53 binding sites. Here, we report the identification of a novel p53 binding site in the human immunodeficiency virus long terminal repeat that specifically mediates mutant p53 transactivation. This DNA element was bound by endogenous Jurkat p53 when these cells were...
