HSP70 Binding Sites in the Tumor Suppressor Protein p53
1 Aug 1997
Abstract excerpt
Mutations within conserved regions of the tumor suppressor protein, p53, result in oncogenic forms of the protein with altered tertiary structures. In most cases, the mutant p53 proteins are selectively recognized and bound by members of the HSP70 family of molecular chaperones, but the binding site(s) in p53 for these chaperones have not been clearly defined. We have screened a library of overlapping...
