TP53 tumor suppressor gene: A model for investigating human mutagenesis

Fromentel, Claude Caron De, Soussi, Thierry·1992·Genes, Chromosomes and Cancer

Abstract

More than 350 independent point mutations of the TP53 gene, found in a wide variety of human cancers, were compiled and analysed. From this study, we confirm the presence of four hot‐spot regions which colocalize with some highly conserved domains of the protein. We also define a new hot‐spot region which is observed predominantly in lung tumors. Analysis of the mutational events suggests the direct involvement of environmental carcinogens in lung tumors and hepatocarcinomas, and spontaneous mutagenesis generating essentially CpG transitions in most of the remaining ones. Furthermore, we demonstrate in this work that the TP53 gene is an informative model with which to study the molecular mechanisms of mutagenesis in the human genome.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
