The molecular dynamics of MDM2 [PDF]

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2010
The pro-oncogenic signals of a vast number of anti-cancer drug targets are mediated by protein-protein interactions. This has made such targets less attractive to classic drug discovery programmes. New paradigms in the protein science field have revealed, however, that many protein-protein complexes are stabilized by an interaction between an ...

Mdm2: Open questions [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Science, 2020
AbstractThe Mdm2 oncoprotein and its association with p53 were discovered 30 years ago, and a cornucopia of activities and regulatory pathways have been associated with it. In this review, we will raise questions about Mdm2 and its cousin Mdm4 that we consider worth pursuing in future research, reaching from molecular structures and intracellular ...

HDAC2 links ubiquitination to tumor suppression in synovial sarcoma

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2021
The function of histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) in transcriptional regulation and its role in oncogenesis have been well established. Here we discuss a transcription-independent HDAC2 pathway controlling cancer-related protein stability via the mouse ...

MAGE-A cancer/testis antigens inhibit MDM2 ubiquitylation function and promote increased levels of MDM4 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Melanoma antigen A (MAGE-A) proteins comprise a structurally and biochemically similar sub-family of Cancer/Testis antigens that are expressed in many cancer types and are thought to contribute actively to malignancy.

MDM2 negatively regulates the human telomerase RNA gene promoter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
<b>Background:</b> We have previously demonstrated that NF-Y and Sp1 interact with the human telomerase RNA (hTR) promoter and play a central role in its regulation. We have also shown that pRB activates the hTR promoter, but the mechanism

The degradation of p53 and its major E3 ligase Mdm2 is differentially dependent on the proteasomal ubiquitin receptor S5a. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
p53 and its major E3 ligase Mdm2 are both ubiquitinated and targeted to the proteasome for degradation. Despite the importance of this in regulating the p53 pathway, little is known about the mechanisms of proteasomal recognition of ubiquitinated p53 and

Influence of the MDM2 single nucleotide polymorphism SNP309 on tumour development in BRCA1 mutation carriers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
BackgroundThe MDM2 gene encodes a negative regulator of the p53 tumour suppressor protein. A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the MDM2 promoter (a T to G exchange at nucleotide 309) has been reported to produce accelerated tumour formation in ...

A p53-independent role for the MDM2 antagonist Nutlin-3 in DNA damage response initiation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
BACKGROUND: The mammalian DNA-damage response (DDR) has evolved to protect genome stability and maximize cell survival following DNA-damage. One of the key regulators of the DDR is p53, itself tightly regulated by MDM2. Following double-strand DNA breaks

The Utility of MDM2 and CDK4 Immunohistochemistry and MDM2 FISH in Craniofacial Osteosarcoma [PDF]

open access: yesHead and Neck Pathology, 2020
Craniofacial osteosarcoma is rare (2-10% of all osteosarcomas). Most low grade fibroblastic osteosarcomas of the long bones are characterized by amplification of chromosome12q including MDM2 and CDK4 genes. This study aims to investigate the utility of MDM2 and CDK4 immunostains as well as MDM2 FISH in craniofacial osteosarcomas as a means of ...

Methoxyphenyl Imidazolines as Potential Activators of p53

open access: yesMedical Sciences Forum, 2022
The use of p53-MDM2/X inhibitors is a prospective strategy in anti-cancer therapy for tumors with wild type p53 protein. In our study, new low-molecular-weight inhibitors of the p53-mdm2 interaction have been proposed.
