1 Differential recognition by the tumor suppressor protein p53 of DNA modified by the novel antitumor trinuclear platinum drug BBR3464 and cisplatin. BBR 3464 tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
2 BBR3464 retains significant activity in human tumor cell lines and xenografts that are refractory or poorly responsive to cisplatin, and displays a high activity in human tumor cell lines that are characterized by both wild-type and mutant p53 gene. BBR 3464 tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
3 This study, using gel-mobility-shift assays, was undertaken to examine the interactions of active and latent p53 protein with DNA fragments and oligodeoxyribonucleotide duplexes modified by BBR3464 in a cell free medium and to compare these results with those describing the interactions of these proteins with DNA modified by cisplatin. BBR 3464 tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
4 The results indicate that structurally different DNA adducts of BBR3464 and cisplatin exhibit a different efficiency to affect the binding affinity of the modified DNA to p53 protein. BBR 3464 tumor protein p53 Homo sapiens
5 It has been suggested that different structural perturbations induced in DNA by the adducts of BBR3464 and cisplatin produce a differential response to p53 protein activation and recognition and that a "molecular approach" to control of downstream effects such as protein recognition and pathways of apoptosis induction may consist in design of structurally unique DNA adducts as cell signals.
