Model for p53–hRPA70 disassociation. Prior to DNA damage p53 and hRPA70 form a complex. When DNA damage occurs, hRPA70 binds and stabilizes the open complex. When this occurs DBD A and B will bind the undamaged strand. This will enhance the weak ssDNA-binding affinity of DBD F presumably to the point where p53 is released.
