Human p53 Binds Holliday Junctions Strongly and Facilitates Their Cleavage
1 Mar 1997
Abstract excerpt
Holliday junctions in DNA are generated as a product of homologous recombination events. To test the hypothesis that human p53 may bind to Holliday junctions, synthetic junctions with four approximately 75-base pair (Hol75) or approximately 565-base pair (Hol565) arms were generated. As seen by electron microscopy, under conditions in which 50-61% of the Hol565 DNAs were bound by p53, 80-96% of the p53 was...
