Research Abstract |
In this study, we have developed a method for transient inhibition of p53-dependent transcription using a p53 tetramerization domain peptide that contains cell penetrating and nuclear localization signals. The peptide was efficiently introduced into cells and inhibited p21 expression via heterotetramerization with endogenous p53 protein. This method can be applied towards safe and efficient iPS cell generation.
