p73 (bahasa Inggris: tumor protein 73) adalah faktor transkripsi dengan berkas genetik TP73,[1]

Defisiensi genetik pada protein ini diketahui dapat menimbulkan berbagai neuroblastoma dan berbaga kanker lain. Peredaman transkripsi genetik dengan proses metilasi DNA pada manusia mengakibatkan berbagai jenis leukemia dan limfoma.[2]

Ekspresi genetik p73 dapat ditingkatkan dengan asam askorbat.[3]
