Abstract excerpt
The tetramerization domain of p53 is required for efficient tumor suppressor activity. This domain, however, also allows wild-type p53 to heterooligomerize with dominant negative tumor-derived p53 mutants. We explored the feasibility of substituting the native tetramerization domain of wild-type...
