p53: traffic cop at the crossroads of DNA repair and recombination

Sengupta, Sagar, Harris, Curtis C.·2005·Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology

Abstract

p53 mutants that lack DNA-binding activities, and therefore, transcriptional activities, are among the most common mutations in human cancer. Recently, a new role for p53 has come to light, as the tumour suppressor also functions in DNA repair and recombination. In cooperation with its function in transcription, the transcription-independent roles of p53 contribute to the control and efficiency of DNA repair and recombination.

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.
