Abstract
A novel apoptosis-associated gene p53AIPI is isolated by screening for a gene the expression of which is induced by p53. Since the protein encoded by this gene has an activity of inducing apoptosis, this gene is useful in developing effective therapeutic agents for cancer mediated by apoptosis. A method of screening for a compound controlling the induction of apoptosis which is expected as being useful in developing an apoptosis controlling agent.
