How to activate p53.

MRC Cell Mutation Unit, University of Sussex, Brighton, BN1 9RR, UK. T.Caspari@sussex.ac.uk

The tumour suppressor protein p53 is stabilised and activated in response to ionising radiation. This is known to depend on the kinase ATM; recent results suggest ATM acts via the downstream kinase Chk2/hCds1, which stabilises p53 at least in part by direct phosphorylation of residue serine 20.
