The tumor suppressor protein p53 plays a critical role in preventing cancer by regulating cell cycle, apoptosis, and genomic stability. However, mutations in the P53 gene are found in over 50% of ...
The p53 gene plays an important role in cell biology as it regulates the cell cycle and halts the formation of tumors. While the gene was discovered more than four decades ago, researchers are still ...
A new study has, for the first time, settled the debate about how a mutated protein present in half of all human cancers drives tumor growth. The discovery will not only facilitate a rethink of the ...
Mutations in the tumor suppressor TP53 are a common cause of cancer, making the altered protein an attractive target for ...
Figure 8: Regulation of ALDH3A1 and NECTIN4 by p53. Researchers Jessica J. Miciak, Lucy Petrova, Rhythm Sajwan, Aditya Pandya, Mikayla Deckard, Andrew J. Munoz, and Fred Bunz from the Sidney Kimmel ...
Toxicologists have found that the protein p53 continuously protects our cells from tumorigenesis by coordinating important metabolic processes that stabilize their genomes. The gene coding for the ...
A research team at the University of Konstanz, led by toxicologist Ivano Amelio, has demonstrated how differently individual mutations of the tumor suppressor p53 affect pancreatic carcinomas. When ...
In the 1970s, scientists knew that some viruses and chemicals caused cancer, but they didn’t know how. Arnold Levine, a biologist currently at the Institute for Advanced Study researched DNA viruses ...
