Abstract excerpt
The MDM2 RING domain harbors E3 ubiquitin ligase activity critical for regulating the degradation of tumor suppressor p53, which controls many cellular pathways. The MDM2 RING domain also is required for an interaction with MDMX. Mice containing a substitution in the MDM2 RING domain, MDM2C462A, disrupting MDM2 E3 function and the MDMX interaction, die during early embryogenesis that can be rescued by p53...
