- the gene product is a transcriptional regulator with 393 amino acids, and has been shown to function by forming a tetramer.
- a gene has been identified as a target gene for p53, and abnormalities in p53 are thought to cause abnormal transcriptional control of target genes.
- mutations in the p53 gene were found to be 70% in lung cancer, 45% in gastric cancer, 30% in breast cancer, 65% in large intestine cancer, 61% in bladder cancer, and 70% in spleen cancer. Therefore (experimental medicine, pp. 19, 135, 2001: non-patent document 3), it is significantly higher than other tumor suppressor genes. In other words, functional abnormalities caused by mutations in the p53 gene have a significant effect on the onset of cancer.

May have. Such a protein can be suitably used even if the amino acid sequence homology is outside the above range.
- a protein with relatively high homology is a protein in which one or more amino acids in CARS, MOCOS, TNF RSF9, LOC56901, or GEF-HI are naturally or artificially substituted, deleted, added, and Z or inserted. There may be.
- the activity of the protein measured in the previous step is compared with that before administration or contact with the test compound. That is, in this step, it is confirmed how the activity of the gene to be measured has changed before and after administration of the test compound.
- the comparison whether or not there is a significant difference in the activity difference is examined, and if the activity of CARS, MOCOS, TNFRSF9, LOC56901 or GEF-HI is predominantly high after administration or contact of the test compound, The effect is judged to be low, and if it is low, it is judged to be effective.
- the p53 gene having wild-type and V157F, R175H, and R248Q mutations was cloned into the doxocycline-inducible vector pTRE-hyg. Next, these p53 expression vectors One was introduced into U20S, a cancer cell, to establish an inducible p53 mutant-expressing cell line.
- Primer and probe sequences used in the real-time RT-PCR method are as follows.
- MOCOS MOCOS, TNFRSF9, CARS, LOC56901, GEF— HI, SFPQ, CC
- TaqMan probe 5′-CCGGGATGACCGGAGCACCTG-3 ′ (SEQ ID NO: 14).
- GEF-HI expression by mutant p53 promotes the progression of canceration
- expression of GEF-HI in wild-type and mutant p53 cell lines! was suppressed by siRNA and cell proliferation ability was examined. That is, GEF-H1 siRNA (Dharmacon) was transferred to cancer cells using Oligofectamine, and the viable cell rate was measured by the MTT method 3 days later.
- FIGS. 7 to 9 cancer cell lines expressing wild type p53
- FIGS. 10 to 12 cancer cell lines expressing mutant p53
- suppression of GEF-HI expression significantly decreased the cell proliferation ability, and it became clear that it was well known.
- the present invention it is possible to detect a p53 dysfunction without directly detecting a p53 mutation, and to diagnose a cancer caused by a strenuous dysfunction without imposing a burden on the subject. It becomes possible. Furthermore, according to the present invention, it is possible to evaluate compounds effective for the treatment of cancer involving p53.
