Abstract excerpt
It has been shown that p300 binds to MDM2 and leads to down-regulation of the p53 function. However, it remains unclear whether the acetylase activity of p300 is necessary for regulating MDM2 stability. In this study, we address this issue. First, p300 did not acetylate MDM2 in solution and in cells. Second, overexpression of p300 in cells increased the level of the MDM2 protein but not its mRNA. Similarly, the...
