Abstract excerpt
The p53 tumor suppressor protein is an important negative regulator of the G1 to S transition in mammalian cells. We have investigated the effect of p53 on the expression of the mouse thymidylate synthase (TS) gene, which normally increases as cells enter S phase. A luciferase indicator gene that was driven by the wild-type or various modified forms of the TATA-less mouse TS promoter was transiently cotransfected...
