Recent experimental data reveal that the peptide fragment of Azurin called p28, constituted by the amino acid residues from 50 to 77 of the whole protein, retains both the Azurin cellular penetration ability and antiproliferative activity. p28 is hypothesized to act by stabilizing the wellโknown tum
The tumor suppressor protein p53 plays a key role in cell-cycle regulation by triggering DNA repair, cell-cycle arrest and apoptosis when the appropriate signal is received. p53 has the classic architecture of a transcription factor, with an aminoterminal transactivation domain, a core DNA-binding d
## Abstract Molecular interaction between p53 tumor suppressor and the copper protein azurin (AZ) has been demonstrated to enhance p53 stability and hence antitumoral function, opening new perspectives in cancer treatment. While some experimental work has provided evidence for AZ binding to p53, no
