PNC-27 Research Guide

Full name: PNC-27 (p53-Derived Anticancer Peptide)

An experimental peptide derived from the p53 tumor suppressor protein, studied for selectively destroying cancer cells. It remains preclinical and is included for educational reference; it is not an approved therapy.

How PNC-27 Works

Contains a p53 domain fused to a membrane-penetrating sequence. It is proposed to bind HDM-2 that is preferentially expressed on cancer cell membranes, forming pores that cause selective necrosis of cancer cells while reportedly sparing normal cells in studies.
