TEXT

Cloning and Expression

Inactivation of the p53 tumor suppressor protein (TP53; 191170) has been observed in a large number of human cancers. Overexpression of p53 induces either growth arrest or apoptosis. The growth arrest function of p53 is mediated by induction of p21 (CDKN1A; 116899). To identify genes that may be involved in p53-dependent apoptosis, Horikoshi et al. (1999) used differential display analysis to compare mRNA from a human colon cancer cell line undergoing a very early stage of p53-induced apoptosis to mRNA from the same cell line before undergoing apoptosis. They identified 6 p53-responsive genes, PRG1 to PRG6. PRG1 was upregulated in the apoptotic cells. Northern blot analysis of the p53-induced colon cancer cell line detected a 3-kb PRG1 transcript.
