Identification of a small-molecule RPL11 mimetic that inhibits tumor growth by targeting MDM2-p53 pathway
7 Sept 2022
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Targeting ribosome biogenesis to activate p53 has recently emerged as a therapeutic strategy in human cancer. Among various ribosomal proteins, RPL11 centralizes the nucleolar stress-sensing pathway by binding MDM2, leading to MDM2 inactivation and p53 activation. Therefore, the identification of MDM2-binding RPL11-mimetics would be valuable for anti-cancer therapeutics. METHODS: Based on the crystal...
