Abstract excerpt
The cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21WAF1/Cip1 (p21) inhibits cellular proliferation and has been implicated in p53-dependent apoptosis. In this study, we examined the regulation of p21 in the K562 erythroleukemia cell line using a human temperature-sensitive mutant of p53, 143Ala. We showed that 143Ala at the permissive temperature (32 degrees C) activated the expression of p21. Stable cell lines expressing...
