P-glycoprotein (Pgp) encoded by the MDR1 gene, a predictor of chemoresistance, may also serve as a prognosticator of clinical outcome in cancer patients. The mutant tumour-suppressor p53 protein has been shown to activate the MDR1 promoter, whereas the wild-type p53 represses this activity in cultur
## Abstract __MDR1__ is upregulated in many tumors. We have previously detected activation of the __MDR1__ upstream promoter in metastatic breast cancer cells. __MDR1__ overlaps with an uncharacterized gene transcribed from the opposite strand, coding for Rap2 interacting protein 9 (__RPIP9__). Rap
