Development of a genetic sensor that eliminates p53 deficient cells
TP53 is mutated in many cancers, a system to detect and selectively eliminate p53 mutant cells is an attractive therapeutic strategy. Here, the authors present a genetic sensor that can detect p53 activity and is coupled to the thymidine kinase gene, which can activate the drug Ganciclovir, resultin...

| Sumario: | TP53 is mutated in many cancers, a system to detect and selectively eliminate p53 mutant cells is an attractive therapeutic strategy. Here, the authors present a genetic sensor that can detect p53 activity and is coupled to the thymidine kinase gene, which can activate the drug Ganciclovir, resulting in cell death. |
