| Abstract | The TP53 gene encodes 12 distinct isoforms, some of which can alter p53 activity in the absence of genomic alteration. Endogenous p53 isoforms have been identified in cancers; however, the function of these isoforms remains unclear. In melanoma, the frequency of TP53 mutations is relatively low compared with other cancers, suggesting that these isoforms may have a larger role in regulating TP53 activity. We hypothesized that p53 function and therefore cell fate might be altered by the presence of Δ40p53, an embryonic isoform missing the first 40 N-terminal amino acids of the full-length protein including the transactivation and Mdm2-binding domains. To test this hypothesis, we transduced tumor and normal cells with a lentivirus encoding Δ40p53. We found that exogenous Δ40p53 caused apoptosis and increased the levels of endogenous, activated p53 in both cancerous and non-cancerous cells, which led to significant levels of cell death, particularly in cancer cells. Activated p53 molecules formed nuclear heterotetramers with Δ40p53 and altered downstream p53 transcription target levels including p53-induced protein with death domain and cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, p21. Δ40p53 altered the promoter occupancy of these downstream p53 target genes in such a way that it shifted cell fate toward apoptosis and away from cell cycle arrest. We show that tumor suppression by p53 can occur via an alternate route that relies on its interaction with Δ40p53. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
