Another Key to the p53 Door
Researchers at the Uppsala Branch of the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research (LICR) have discovered that the transcription factor Yin Yang 1 (YY1) is a novel regulator of the tumor suppressor p53, which is inactivated in at least half of all human cancers. The p53 transcription factor plays a... view more (2004-07-29)
