Pep8

Pep8 is an artificial peptide that was shown to play a potential role in the re-induction of p53 translation which leads to decreased tumor growth in mice xenograft.1 p53 acts as tumor suppressor by preserving the integrity of the genome. p53 loss of function is associated with more than half of all human cancers.2,3 Further, Pep8 was shown to sensitize cancer cells to an anticancer drug doxorubicin.1 Pep8 is part of the composite parts BBa_K3861024 and BBa_K3861026.
