Abstract excerpt
The adenovirus E1B 55-kDa and E4 34-kDa oncoproteins bind and inactivate the p53 tumor suppressor gene product, resulting in cell transformation. A recently discovered cellular protein, p73, shows extensive similarities to p53 in structure and function. Here we show that the simultaneous transient expression of E1B 55-kDa and E4 34-kDa proteins is sufficient to drastically shorten the intracellular half-life of...
