ChIP-chip data for identifying target genes and consensus binding sequences of mutant p53 in MDA-MB-468 breast cancer cells.

ABSTRACT: The tumor suppressor p53 exerts its role mainly as a transcription factor. The TP53 gene, which encodes the p53 protein, is the most commonly mutated gene in human cancers, particularly triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Variations in the TP53 gene occur mainly in exons 5-8 and result in missense mutations in the DNA-binding domain of the p53 protein that alter DNA binding specificity. To identify the target genes of mutant p53, we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by DNA microarray (ChIP-chip). Briefly, the TNBC cell line MDA-MB-468 containing the endogenous p53-R273H mutation (the arginine residue at position 273 is mutated to a histidine) was cross-linked with 1% formaldehyde and ultrasonically sheared to generate chromatin fragments in a range of 200∼1000 bp.
