Tumor suppressor p53, known as 'the guardian of the genome', has the ability to prevent the emergence of transformed cells by the induction of cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Otherwise, there were researches about the function of p53, such as NDA repair, regulating metabolism and maternal reproduction in recent years. Furthermore, there was a new function for p53 in antiviral apoptosis mentioned in the research, Integration of interferon-alpha/beta signaling to p53 responses in tumour suppression and antiviral defense. In order to define the antiviral function of p53, many target genes has been defined, such as IRF9, IRF5, ISG15 and TLR3. All of these implied there must be a complex mechanism for role of p53 in antiviral innate immunity, adaptive immunity and inflammation.

Background: The potential role of Klebsiella pneumoniae (K.pn) in hypertension development has been emphasized, although the specific mechanisms have not been well understood. Bacterial extracellular vesicles (BEVs) released by Gram-negative bacteria modulate host cell functions by delivering bacterial components to host cells.

The study of the mechanism of oligoasthenospermia, which is a major cause of male infertility, has been the focus of research in the field of male reproduction. TAp73, a member of the p53 family of oncogenes, is endowed with tumor-suppressing activity due to its structural and functional homology with p53. It has been found that TAp73, plays a key role in spermatogenesis and maintaining male reproduction.

The p53 protein is regarded as the "Guardian of the Genome," but its mutation is tumor progression and present in more than half of malignant tumors. The pro-metastatic property of mutant p53 makes a strong argument for targeting mutant p53 with new therapeutic strategies. However, mutant p53 was considered as a challenging target for drug discovery due to the lack of small molecular binding pockets.

Optimized mammalian expression system for the ubiquitin E3 ligase E6AP/UBE3A.

Protein Expr Purif

January 2025

Protein Processing Section, Center for Structural Biology, Center for Cancer Research, National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, Frederick, MD 21702, USA. Electronic address:

E6AP/UBE3A is the founding member of the HECT (Homologous to the E6-AP Carboxyl Terminus) ubiquitin E3 ligase family, which add ubiquitin post-translationally to protein substrates. E6AP has been structurally defined in complex with human papillomavirus (HPV) oncoprotein E6 and its gain-of-function substrate tumor suppressor p53; however, there is currently no report of E6AP being expressed and purified from mammalian cells, as studies to date have isolated E6AP from E. coli or insect cells.

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) persistence is associated with molecular remodeling that fuels electrical conduction abnormalities in atrial tissue. Previous research revealed DNA damage as a molecular driver of AF.

Objectives: This study sought to explore the diagnostic value of DNA damage in atrial tissue and blood samples as an indicator of the prevalence of electrical conduction abnormalities and stage of AF.
