p53 protein isoforms through conserved mechanisms. 6,7 The main and most abundant p53 isoform is the canonical p53 protein, also termed TAp53a, as it contains an entire TAD and the longest C-terminal domain

How many isoforms are there of mouse p53?


Information about p53 isoforms from an expert (Dr. Jean-Christophe Bourdon)



I had a conversation with a student (Lucia Morgado Palacin) that told me that for mouse p53 the full length p53 should be the main one. There is a delta form with the C terminal end removed and a beta form with the N terminal removed. The student also recommend I talk to the head of the cnio genomics unit.
