The human MDM-2 oncogene is overexpressed in leukemias

1993-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Abstract The human homologue of the mouse double minute 2 (MDM-2) gene codes for a cellular protein that forms a complex with the mutant and wild-type p53 protein and modulates its trans-activation activity. Overexpression of the MDM-2 gene in cells increases their tumorigenic potential and overcomes the growth-suppressive activity of p53. Previous reports have shown that the MDM-2 gene is amplified in approximate...
