p53 Codon 72 Polymorphic Variants, Loss of Allele-Specific Transcription, and Human Papilloma Virus 16 and/or 18 E6 Messenger RNA Expression in Squamous Cell Carcinomas of the Head and Neck

Abstract: A polymorphism at codon 72 of the human tumor suppressor p53 determines translation into either arginine or proline. Yet, the impact of this amino acid variability on the risk to develop malignant tumors, particularly carcinomas associated with human papilloma virus (HPV) infections, remains unresolved because of contradictory results. To address a potential correlation between the different genotypes and the manifestation of squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck (SCCHN), we determined the p53 codon 72… Show more

“…The Pro47Ser variant (rs1800371) has been reported in populations of African ancestry (allelic frequency estimated at 2-4% in Africa and 1.2% in African-Americans) [16] and have been associated with increased risk of breast cancer among pre-menopausal women [17]. The Pro72Arg (rs1042522) is a non-conserved amino acid with reported altered electrophoretic mobility, conformation and function of the mutant protein [18]. This variant shows significant ethnic bias with Arginine allelic frequencies estimated at ~72%…”
