Abstract
As the tale of p53 unfolds, it becomes ever more intriguing. Although our understanding of the critical and complex roles played by p53 is progressing rapidly, new findings continue to pose new paradoxes. Here we present some of these recent advances in p53 research and discuss how they either shed light on or add to the complexities of p53. Therefore, we only briefly summarize some of the key developments leading to our current state of knowledge. For further information, the reader is referred to several excellent reviews that have focused on p53 research (see Donehower and Bradley 1993; Levine 1993; Greenblatt et al. 1994; Oren 1994; Prives 1994; Kinzler and Vogelstein 1996).
