An anti-human p53 antibody, wherein it binds to the linear epitope of human p53 of sequence RRTEEENLRKKGEPHH (SEQ ID NO:
- 1), and wherein the anti-human p53 antibody is made by the following steps of:
- (i) immunizing an animal with an immunogen comprising a peptide of the human p53 protein of sequence CRTEEENLRKKGEPHH (SEQ ID NO:
- 2) conjugated with a carrier;
- and (ii) isolating the antibody obtained upon immunization.
