Abstract excerpt
The tumor suppressor gene p53 has been identified as the most frequent target of genetic alterations in human cancers. A considerable number of environmentally induced, cancer-related p53 mutations in human tumors have been found in a highly conserved proline-rich sequence of the p53 protein encompassed by amino acid residues 147-158. Using conformational energy analysis based on ECEPP (Empirical Conformational...
