TP53 exon-6 truncating mutations produce separation of function isoforms with pro-tumorigenic functions

TP53 exon-6 truncating mutations produce separation of function isoforms with pro-tumorigenic functions

TP53 truncating mutations are common in human tumors and are thought to give rise to p53-null alleles. Here, we show that TP53 exon-6 truncating mutations occur at higher than expected frequencies and produce proteins that lack canonical p53 tumor suppressor activities but promote cancer cell prolif...
