p53 isoforms can regulate p53 transcriptional activity.
- Jean-Christophe Bourdon, K. Fernandes, +5 authors D. Lane
- Biology, Medicine
- Genes & development
- 15 September 2005
The recently discovered p53-related genes, p73 and p63, express multiple splice variants and N-terminally truncated forms initiated from an alternative promoter in intron 3. To date, no alternative… Expand
p53 in health and disease
- K. Vousden, D. Lane
- Medicine, Biology
- Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology
- 1 April 2007
As a component of the response to acute stress, p53 has a well established role in protecting against cancer development. However, it is now becoming clear that p53 can have a much broader role and… Expand
Mdm2-Mediated NEDD8 Conjugation of p53 Inhibits Its Transcriptional Activity
- D. Xirodimas, M. Saville, Jean-Christophe Bourdon, R. Hay, D. Lane
- Biology, Medicine
- Cell
- 9 July 2004
The only reported role for the conjugation of the NEDD8 ubiquitin-like molecule is control of the activity of SCF ubiquitin ligase complexes. Here, we show that the Mdm2 RING finger E3 ubiquitin… Expand
p53/p63/p73 isoforms: an orchestra of isoforms to harmonise cell differentiation and response to stress
- F. Murray-Zmijewski, D. Lane, J-C Bourdon
- Biology, Medicine
- Cell Death and Differentiation
- 1 June 2006
p63, p73 and p53 compose a family of transcription factors involved in cell response to stress and development. p53 is the most frequently mutated gene in cancer (50%) and loss of p53 activity is… Expand
Awakening guardian angels: drugging the p53 pathway

- Biology, Medicine
- Nature Reviews Cancer
- 1 December 2009
Currently, around 11 million people are living with a tumour that contains an inactivating mutation of TP53 (the human gene that encodes p53) and another 11 million have tumours in which the p53… Expand
SUMO‐1 modification activates the transcriptional response of p53
- M. Rodríguez, J. Desterro, S. Lain, Carol A Midgley, D. Lane, R. Hay
- Biology, Medicine
- The EMBO journal
- 15 November 1999
The p53 tumour suppressor protein is regulated by ubiquitin‐mediated proteasomal degradation. In normal cells p53 is constitutively ubiquitylated by the Mdm2 ubiquitin ligase. When the p53 response… Expand
Discovery, In Vivo Activity, and Mechanism of Action of a Small-Molecule p53 Activator
- S. Lain, J. J. Hollick, +15 authors N. Westwood
- Chemistry, Biology
- Cancer cell
- 1 November 2007
Summary We have carried out a cell-based screen aimed at discovering small molecules that activate p53 and have the potential to decrease tumor growth. Here, we describe one of our hit compounds,… Expand
Regulation of the specific DNA binding function of p53
- T. Hupp, D. Meek, Carol A Midgley, D. Lane
- Biology, Medicine
- Cell
- 27 November 1992
The DNA binding activity of p53 is required for its tumor suppressor function; we show here that this activity is cryptic but can be activated by cellular factors acting on a C-terminal regulatory… Expand
Two Pathways for Base Excision Repair in Mammalian Cells (*)
- G. Fròsina, P. Fortini, +6 authors E. Dogliotti
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of Biological Chemistry
- 19 April 1996
Abasic sites (apurinic/apyrimidinic, AP sites) are the most common DNA lesions generated by both spontaneous and induced base loss. In a previous study we have shown that circular plasmid molecules… Expand
