Zinc shapes the folding landscape of p53 and establishes a pathway for reactivating structurally diverse cancer mutants

Missense mutations in the p53 DNA-binding domain (DBD) contribute to half of new cancer cases annually. Here we present a thermodynamic model that quantifies and links the major pathways by which mutations inactivate p53. We find that DBD possesses two unusual properties—one of the highest zinc affi...
