The dominant-negative interplay between p53, p63 and p73: A family affair
The tumor suppression activity of p53 is frequently impaired in cancers even when a wild-type copy of the gene is still present, suggesting that a dominant-negative effect is exerted by some of p53 mutants and isoforms. p63 and p73, which are related to p53, have also been reported to be subjected to a similar loss of function, suggesting that a dominant-negative interplay might happen between ...
متن کاملFrequent alteration of p63 expression in human primary bladder carcinomas.
p63, a recently identified member of the p53 gene family, encodes multiple products with transactivating, death-inducing, and dominant-negative activities. To explore the penetrance of p63 in bladder carcinogenesis, we performed expression and mutation analyses of two major isotypes, TAp63 and deltaNp63, in 63 bladder specimens. In 12 normal tissues, TAp63 was expressed at an easily detectable ...
متن کاملmolecular focus in p63 and correlated human diseases
the p63 gene, a member of the p53 gene family, is expressed into at least six protein isoforms.the transcription factor p63 is a homologue of the tumor suppressor p53. unlike p53, which is dispensable for normal development, p63 is critical for the development of stratified epithelial tissues such as epidermis, breast, and prostate. p63, , is transcribed from two different promoters giving rise...
متن کاملTP53 family members and human cancers.
Based on gene sequence homologies, a p53 (TP53) gene family become apparent with the addition of the most recently identified p63 (TP73L; formerly TP63) and p73 (TP73) genes to the already known p53. The p53 gene encodes for a unique protein eliciting well-known tumor suppressor gene (TSG) properties that mediate cellular response to DNA damage, e.g., cell cycle arrest or apoptosis. In contrast...
متن کاملAllele-specific silencing of mutant p53 attenuates dominant-negative and gain-of-function activities
Many p53 hotspot mutants not only lose the transcriptional activity, but also show dominant-negative (DN) and oncogenic gain-of-function (GOF) activities. Increasing evidence indicates that knockdown of mutant p53 (mutp53) in cancer cells reduces their aggressive properties, suggesting that survival and proliferation of cancer cells are, at least partially, dependent on the presence of mutp53. ...
