PEPD is a pivotal regulator of p53 tumor suppressor
p53 is a pivotal tumour suppressor that is activated by various cellular stress inducers. Here, the authors show that peptidase D (PEPD) promotes the growth of cancer cells by suppressing p53 and that the complex PEPD-p53 is critical for robust p53 activation in response to stress signals.
