摘要
p53 can induce apoptosis through its well defined role as a regulator of transcription, but also by a less well defined transcription-independent mechanism. Two recent studies demonstrate that p53 mediates mitochondrial permeabilization through direct physical interactions with the pro-apoptotic Bcl-2 family members, Bax and Bak.
