Abstract
It is well established that mutant forms of the p53 tumour suppressor acquire pro-oncogenic activities. Inhibition of the mevalonate pathway is now shown to promote degradation of select oncogenic mutant p53 proteins, indicating that destabilization of mutant p53 could be a promising therapeutic strategy.Entities:
