Abstract excerpt
Mutant p53 alleles that have a recessive phenotype in human tumors can, in cooperation with an activated H-ras gene, transform rat embryo fibroblasts (REFs). Mutant p53 proteins differ from wild type, and from each other in conformation, localization and transforming potential. Missense mutations in codons 143, 175 and 275 confer strong transforming potential. A serine 135 p53 mutant has an intermediate...
