p53-mediated apoptosis involves multiple mechanisms. A number of p53-regulated apoptosis-related genes have been identified. Some of these genes encode proteins that are important in controlling the integrity of mitochondria while the others code for membrane death receptors. p53 may also induce apo

## Abstract Ribonucleoproteins (RNP) are involved in many essential processes in life. However, the roles of RNA and protein subunits in an RNP complex are often hard to dissect. In many RNP complexes, including the ribosome and the Group II introns, one main function of the protein subunits is to
The tumor suppressor gene TP53 is frequently mutated in human cancers. More than 75% of all mutations are missense substitutions that have been extensively analyzed in various yeast and human cell assays. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) TP53 database (www-p53.iarc.fr) compiles
Apoptosis occurs not only in mitotic cells but also in postmitotic neuronal cells. We previously suggested that the tumor suppressor gene p53 is required for DNA strand break-induced apoptosis in dissociated culture of cerebellar granule neurons. In this study, we examined the role of p53 in apoptos
