Glossaryp53 (p53 protein)

regulates cell division and prevents tumor formation

p53, also known as TP53 or Tumor Protein p53, is a crucial gene that produces a protein responsible for regulating cell division and preventing tumor formation. Often referred to as the "guardian of the genome," p53 helps repair damaged DNA or triggers cell death if the damage is irreparable, thereby playing a vital role in cancer prevention.
