Sommario/riassunto

Paradoxal Renan ! Il a consacré sa vie à l'exploration critique de l'histoire religieuse, tout en éprouvant perpétuellement le besoin de se ressourcer à son enfance. Par delà la foi perdue et les ambitions scientifiques, il n'a cessé de retourner à sa propre bretonnité, d'interroger la poésie et la pensée celtiques. Renan est une figure quasi unique : un celte rationaliste. Au fil de l'ouvrage de Jean Balcou, on découvrira comment cette alliance peu commune a été possible, et combien elle reste pour nous fascinante.

Sommario/riassunto

TP53 gene mutations are present in more than half of all human cancers. The resulting proteins are mostly full-length with a single amino acid change and are abundantly expressed in cancer cells. Some of the mutant p53 proteins gain oncogenic functions (GOF) through which it actively contribute to the aberrant cell proliferation, increased resistance to apoptotic stimuli and ability to metastasize. Gain of function mutant p53 proteins can transcriptionally regulate the expression of a large plethora of target genes. This mainly occurs through the formation of oncogenic transcriptional competent complexes that include mutant p53 protein, known transcription factors, posttranslational modifiers and scaffold proteins. Mutant p53 protein can also transcriptionally regulate the expression of microRNAs, small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression at the posttranscriptional level. Each microRNA can putatively target the expression of hundred mRNAs and consequently impact on many cellular functions. Thus, gain of function mutant p53 proteins can exert their oncogenic activities through the modulation of both non-coding and coding regions of human genome. Over the past 3 decades, the regulation of p53 has been extensively studied. However, the regulation of mutant p53 remained largely unexplored. This snapshot focuses on recent discovery of mutant p53 GOF and regulation.
