YuLi Chai et al. (Oncogene. 1999; 18: 263-268) reported the existence of
an interaction between the cellular tumor antigen p53 and the breast
cancer type 1 susceptibility protein BRCA1, showing the involvement of
the "central" region of p53 (a.a. 99-307) and the 2nd BRCT domain of
BRCA1 (a.a. 1760-1863).
With our methods, we were able to predict correctly the interacting
domains of p53 and BRCA1, finding with greater precision the regions
involved in the interaction.
