ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides peptides corresponding to all or a portion of amino acid residues 12-26 of human p53 protein. When fused to a membrane-penetrating leader sequence, the peptides are either lethal to malignant or transformed cells or else cause reversion to the untransformed morphological phenotype. The subject peptides are thus useful in treating neoplastic disease in an animal, preferably a human. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the subject peptides admixed with a pharmaceutical acceptable carrier. Methods of treating neoplastic disease in a patient by administering a subject peptide are also provided.
