Where this comes from

Abstract

The tumor suppressor protein p53, a crucial player in the DNA damage response, is regulated in many ways, most notably through ubiquitination. In this issue, Yuan et al. (2010) identify the deubiquitinating protease USP10 as a new regulator of p53 in the DNA damage response and tumor development.
