The human transcription factor TP53 is a pivotal roadblock against cancer. A key unresolved question is how the p53 protein selects its genomic binding sites in vivo out of a large pool of potential consensus sites. We hypothesized that chromatin may play a significant role in this site-selection process. To test this, we used a custom DNA microarray to measure p53 binding at approximately 2000 sites predicted to possess high-sequence specificity, and identified both strongly bound and weakly bo ...[more]
