Linear peptides can mimic and disrupt protein-protein interactions involved in critical cell signaling pathways. Such peptides however are usually protease sensitive and unable to engage with intracellular targets due to lack of membrane permeability ...

The SWIB/MDM2 motif of UBE4B activates the p53 pathway
The tumor suppressor p53 plays a critical role in cancer pathogenesis, and regulation of p53 expression is essential for maintaining normal cell growth. UBE4B is an E3/E4 ubiquitin ligase involved in a negative-feedback loop with p53.

Understanding p53 functions through p53 antibodies
TP53 is the most frequently mutated gene across all cancer types. Our understanding of its functions has evolved since its discovery four decades ago. Initially thought to be an oncogene, it was later realized to be a critical tumour suppressor. A significant amount of our knowledge about p53 functions have come from the use of antibodies against its ...

p53-induced growth arrest is regulated by the mitochondrial SirT3 deacetylase. [PDF]
A hallmark of p53 function is to regulate a transcriptional program in response to extracellular and intracellular stress that directs cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and cellular senescence.

Structural analysis of MDM2 RING separates degradation from regulation of p53 transcription activity [PDF]
MDM2–MDMX complexes bind the p53 tumor-suppressor protein, inhibiting p53's transcriptional activity and targeting p53 for proteasomal degradation. Inhibitors that disrupt binding between p53 and MDM2 efficiently activate a p53 response, but their use in

Background Protein–protein interactions (PPIs) are fundamental to the growth and survival of cells and serve as excellent targets to develop inhibitors of biological processes such as host-pathogen interactions and cancer cell proliferation.

Although hematologic malignancies and some solid tumors such as germ cell tumors and pediatric malignancies can be cured by cytotoxic treatment, the most prevalent solid tumors are relatively resistant to these interventions. Apoptosis is involved in the cell kill of anticancer drugs and p53 is believed to be of principal importance in this process ...

Monoclonal Antibodies against Specific p53 Hotspot Mutants as Potential Tools for Precision Medicine
Summary: The large number of mutations identified across all cancers represents an untapped reservoir of targets that can be useful for therapeutic targeting if highly selective, mutation-specific reagents are available.
