ING2 Regulates the Onset of Replicative Senescence by Induction of p300-Dependent p53 Acetylation

Abstract excerpt

ING2 is a candidate tumor suppressor gene that can activate p53 by enhancing its acetylation. Here, we demonstrate that ING2 is also involved in p53-mediated replicative senescence. ING2 protein expression increased in late-passage human primary cells, and it colocalizes with serine 15-phosphorylated p53. ING2 and p53 also complexed with the histone acetyltransferase p300. ING2 enhanced the interaction between...
