Selective Elimination of TP53 Mutant Cells by Transcript-Activated Chromatin Shredding
2026-05-09
Abstract excerpt
Genetic mutations that drive cancer often occur in tumor suppressor proteins, including the p53 transcription factor which is altered in ∼40-50% of cases 1,2 . However, current therapies fail to target most such mutations because the mutant proteins typically lack defined drug-binding pockets, and restoring the endogenous function has proven challenging. Here, we programmed CRISPR-Cas12a2, an RNA-guided nuclease...
