    GlossaryTumor Protein p63 (TP63)

    protein crucial for epithelial tissue development and maintenance

    Tumor Protein p63 (often referred to as p63 or TP63) is a protein that plays a crucial role in the development and maintenance of epithelial tissues, which are the layers of cells covering surfaces and lining cavities in the body. It is involved in regulating cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis (programmed cell death). Mutations in the TP63 gene can lead to various developmental disorders and have been linked to certain types of cancer.
