Protein mimetic amyloid inhibitor potently abrogates cancer-associated mutant p53 aggregation and restores tumor suppressor function

2020-08-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Missense mutations in p53 are severely deleterious and occur in over 50% of all human cancers. The vast majority of these mutations are located in the inherently unstable DNA-binding domain (DBD), many of which destabilize the domain further and expose its aggregation-prone hydrophobic core, prompting self-assembly of mutant p53 into inactive cytosolic amyloid-like aggregates. Screening an oligo...
