Abstract excerpt
The ARF/MDM2/p53 pathway is a principal defense mechanism to protect the organism from uncontrolled effects of deregulated oncogenes. Oncogenes activate ARF, which interacts with and inhibits the ubiquitin ligase MDM2, resulting in p53 stabilization and activation. Once stabilized and activated, p53 can either induce or repress a wide array of different gene targets, which in turn can regulate cell cycle, DNA...
