Abstract excerpt
The p53 tumor suppressor is regulated by MDM2-mediated ubiquitination and degradation. Ubiquitination of p53 is regulated by ARF, which binds to MDM2 and inhibits its E3 ligase function. P53 is also subjected to modification by conjugation of SUMO-1. We found that a p53 mutant deficient for MDM2 binding (p53(14Q19S)) is poorly sumoylated in vivo compared to wild-type p53. Overexpression of MDM2 increases the...
