Abstract excerpt
Mutations within a conserved "conformational" domain of the p53 protein have frequently been observed in a wide variety of human cancers. A hybrid protein containing the wild-type conformational domain of p53 fused to protein A bound to calf thymus DNA and a specific p53 DNA-binding motif. Hybrid proteins containing mutations in p53 bound to DNA less efficiently than wild-type hybrid protein. In addition,...
