Abstract Over 80% of triple-negative breast cancers (TNBC) express mutant p53 (mtp53) and some contain oncogenic gain-of-function (GOF) p53. We previously reported that GOF mtp53 R273H upregulates the chromatin association mini chromosome maintenance (MCM) proteins MCM2-7 PARP named this mtp53–PARP–MCM axis. In study, we dissected function between using a number different cell lines, patient-derived xenografts (PDX), tissue microarrays (TMA), The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database....

Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) has no targeted detection or treatment method. Mutant p53 (mtp53) is overexpressed in >80% of TNBCs, and the stability mtp53 compared to instability wild-type (wtp53) normal cells makes a promising TNBC target for diagnostic theranostic imaging. We generated Cy5p53Tet, novel nucleus-penetrating mtp53-oligomerization-domain peptide (mtp53ODP) tetramerization domain (TD) mtp53. This mtp53ODP contains TD sequence conjugated Cy5 fluorophore near-infrared...

The TP53 gene is often mutated in cancer, with missense mutations found the central DNA binding domain, and less C-terminal oligomerization domain (OD). These types of are patients rare inherited cancer predisposition disorder called Li-Fraumeni syndrome. We previously that mutant p53 (mtp53) R273H associates replicating promotes chromatin association replication-associated proteins mini-chromosome maintenance 2 (MCM2), poly ADP-ribose polymerase 1(PARP1). Herein, we created dual mutants...

We recently documented that gain-of-function (GOF) mutant p53 (mtp53) R273H in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells interacts with replicating DNA and PARP1. The missense GOF mtp53 has a mutated central binding domain renders it unable to bind specifically DNA, but maintains the capacity interact tightly chromatin. Both C-terminal (CTD) oligomerization (OD) of proteins are intact is unclear whether these regions responsible for chromatin-based replication activities. generated...

Abstract Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is the most common soft tissue sarcoma in children and adolescents. RMS tumors are classified into four subtypes: embryonal, alveolar, spindle cell/sclerosing, pleomorphic. Treatment options for include a combination of surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy regimens patients with relapsed metastatic remain limited. However, recent study has reported that pharmacological inhibitors targeting ataxia telangiectasia Rad3-related protein (ATR) currently...

Abstract The TP53 gene is mutated in 80% of triple-negative breast cancers. Cells that harbor the hot-spot p53 mutation R273H produce an oncogenic mutant (mtp53) enhances cell proliferative and metastatic properties. enhanced activities mtp53 are collectively referred to as gain-of-function (GOF), may include transcription-independent chromatin-based shared with wild-type (wtp53) such association replicating DNA replication associated proteins like PARP1. However, how upregulates...
