However, there’s been steady progress in developing drugs to target the TP53 gene and some other tumor suppressor genes. Tumor suppressor genes tell healthy cells when to destroy themselves ...

Medically reviewed by Marla Anderson, MD The TP53 gene is a gene that is mutated in many cancers. It is the most common gene mutation found in cancer cells. A tumor-suppressor gene, TP53 codes for ...

Researchers sequenced the TP53 tumor suppressor gene in 3,858 children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and identified 22 high-risk germline variations. The variants were associated with ...

Although there are tumor suppressor genes in normal cells to prevent cancer, gene mutations can cause a normal cell to become ...

Tumor suppressor mutations typically involve indels, splicing, or nonsense mutations distributed throughout the gene. The TP53 gene is unique, with most mutations being missense and concentrated ...

The authors hope that these datasets “may be used to advance our understanding of the TP53 and PTEN tumor suppressor genes and to provide functional signatures for bioinformatic analyses of ...

The St. Jude Children's Research Hospital—Washington University Pediatric Cancer Genome Project found mutations in the tumor suppressor gene TP53 in 90 percent of osteosarcomas, suggesting the ...
