摘要: When mammalian cells are under stress they activate the tumour-suppressor gene p53. But how does cell signal to p53 that it is attack? A new study implicates DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK), which activated by DNA damage and can bind Damaged don't contain DNA-PK accumulate an inactive form of p53, indicating crucial for activation
