Inactivity of acrylonitrile epoxide to modify a Ha-ras DNA in a non-focus transfection-transformation assay.

abstract：:p53 is a tumor suppressor that responds to a variety of stresses such as oncogenes and DNA damage by activating its transcriptional targets to allow repair or elimination of damaged cells. In the absence of stress signals, p53 needs to be kept in check and this is achieved by the E3 ligase MDM2. For tumors that retain...
