Prelude:
tumorviruses,oncogenesandtheroadtop53
Inthe1970’s,muchoftheattentionof“modern”cancerresearchersfocusedoncancer-causingviruses.Inparticular,itbecameevidentthatsuchvirusescarriedoncogenes.ThebiggerpicturewasfirstresolvedforRNAtumorviruses;
there,itwasshownthatthevirus“hijacks”acellulargene,whichitsubsequentlyreintroducesintothecellthatitinfects2.Thisleadstothevastoverexpressionoftheencodedcellularprotein,sometimesinmodifiedform,andeventuallycausestransformation.Similarly,oncogeneswereuncoveredbyexaminingthegenesadjacenttotheintegrationsitesofretrovirusesthatresultedintheoverexpressionofthosegenesandtheformationoftumorsinanimals.
Overthenextfifteenyearsalonglistofoncogeneswereidentifiedanditbecameclearthatoncogeneswerethecauseofcancersinanimals.Itwasthusnotatallfar-fetchedtoexpectthatDNAtumorvirusesmightoperatebyessentiallythesameprinciple–thattheyhadpickeduponcogenesfromthecellorencodedtheirownviraloncogenes.ItbecamerapidlyclearthattheDNAtumorvirusescontainedoncogenesnotrelatedtothecellularoncogenesoftheRNAtumorviruses.Buthowdidtheseviraloncogenesacttotransformcellsandproducetumorsinanimals?
ItwasproposedthattheDNAtumorvirusoncogenesencodeviralproteinsthatleadindirectlytotheexcessiveinductionofputativecellularoncoproteins.Itwasonthatfertileconceptualsoilthatp53firstemerged.
TumorsinducedinexperimentalanimalsbysmallDNAtumorviruses,suchasSV40,typicallyexpressalimitednumberofviralencodedproteins.Thesearerecognizedbytheimmunesystemofthehost,leadingtotheproductionofantibodiesagainsttheseproteins.Bythemid-1970’s,suchantibodiesstartedtogainpopularityastoolstoidentifyandmonitorproteinsencodedbytheviralgenomeandexpressedintransformedcells.Basedontheirmodeofdetection,theseproteinsweredubbedviraltumorantigens.Subsequentgeneticanalysisrevealedthatthegenesencodingtheseviraltumorantigenswereoftenthosealsoresponsibleforthetransformingactivityofthevirus,namelytheviraloncoproteins.InthecaseofSV40,thetwoviralproteinsidentifiedinthismannerwerecalledlargeT-antigenandsmallt-antigen,respectively.
ItwaswhilestudyingtheseSV40-derivedtumorantigensthatseveralgroupsindependentlystumbledonp53.Thishappenedin1979,thirtyyearsago(Timeline).WorkingattheICRF(nowLondonInstituteforCancerResearch),DavidLaneandLionelCrawfordrealizedthatwhenserafromanimalsbearingSV40-inducedtumorswereemployedtoimmunoprecipitateSV40largeT-antigen,anon-viralproteinwithanapparentmolecularmassofabout53kDacamealongfortheride3.FurtheranalysisestablishedthatthiscellularproteinwasphysicallycomplexedwithSV40largeT-antigen.Thustheviralprotein,previouslyshowntobelargelyresponsibleforthetransformingandtumorigenicactivityoftheSV40virus,hadselectedthishithertounknowncellularproteinasitspartnerforanintimate,specificinteraction.Atthesametime,DanielLinzerandArnoldLevineappliedasimilarimmunologicalapproachtoSV40transformedcells,andcameupwithessentiallythesameobservations,namelythatsuchcellsharboredacomplexbetweentheSV40largeT-antigenandthecellular53kDaprotein4.Threeothergroups,thoseofAlanSmithintheUK,RobertCarrollinNewYorkandPierreMayinFrance,simultaneouslymadeverysimilarfindings,allpublishedin19795-7.
Interestingly,LinzerandLevinealsofoundthattheirantiseraprecipitatedthesame53kDaproteinfromteratocarcinoma(agermcelltumor)-derivedcells,despitethefactthatthelatterdidnotharboranySV40proteins;
thisindicatedthatasubsetoftheantibodiesraisedagainsttheviral-inducedtumorwerecapableofinteractingdirectlywiththiscellularprotein4.Inparallel,LloydOldandcoworkersdemonstratedthatanimalsimmunizedwithnon-virallytransformedcellsproducedantibodiestothesame53kDaprotein8,rightfullyqualifyingitasacellulartumorantigen.Moreover,VardaRotter,workinginthelabofDavidBaltimore,wasabletoidentifythesameproteinbeingproducedinexcessincellstransformedbyaretrovirus,theAbelsonmurineleukemiavirus9.Hence,veryhighlevelsofthisnewcellularproteinwerepresentnotonlyinSV40-transformedcellsbutalsoinothertypesofcancercells,butlittleornop53proteincouldbedetectedinnon-transformedcells.
Asisoftenthecasewithindependentdiscoveriesofthesameprotein,eachlabgaveitadifferentnameandcontinuedtopublishsubsequentpapersusingtheirfavoritename,creatingquiteabitofconfusioninthisveryyoungfield.Itwasonlyin1983,duringthefirstp53WorkshopinOxted,UK(Fig.1),thatrepresentativesofthedifferentp53groupsgottogethertodiscussacommonnomenclature.Afterareasonabledealofinevitabledebate,theterm“p53”emergedasthewinnerandhasstayedwithuseversince.Ironically,p53isactuallyamisnomer.Whencoined,itpurportedlyrelatedtothemolecularmassoftheprotein,whichonthebasisofitsmigrationinSDS-polyacrylamidegelswasestimatedtobeabout53kDa.Asrealizedlater,thiswasagrossoverestimate,presumablyduetothepresenceofaproline-richregionthatslowsdownthemigrationoftheproteininsuchgels.Infact,thecorrectmolecularmassofthehumanp53proteinisonly43.7kDa,andthatofthemouseproteinisevenless.Butwhowoulddarechangeawinningname?
