Abstract excerpt
A strong growth inhibition is observed when the human p53 tumor suppressor gene product is expressed in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. This growth inhibition is specific for wild-type p53; mutant alleles of p53 derived from human tumors show a greatly decreased ability to inhibit growth. These data suggest that there may be a p53-responsive pathway in S. pombe. To identify elements in this pathway...
