p53 post-translational modification: deregulated in tumorigenesis

Open access
Dai, Chao, Gu, Wei·2010·Trends in Molecular Medicine

Abstract

The p53 tumor suppressor protein has well-established roles in monitoring various types of stress signals by activating specific transcriptional targets that control cell cycle arrest and apoptosis although some activities are also mediated in a transcription-independent manner. Here, we review the recent advances in our understanding of the wide spectrum of post-translational modifications that act as epigenetic-like codes for modulating specific functions of p53 in vivo and how deregulation of these modifications might contribute to tumorigenesis. We also discuss future research priorities to further understand p53 post-translational modifications and the interpretation of genetic data in appreciation of the increasing evidence that p53 regulates cellular metabolism, autophagy and many unconventional tumor suppressor activities.

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.
