The MDM2-p53 interaction.
Activation of the p53 protein protects the organism against the propagation of cells that carry damaged DNA with potentially oncogenic mutations. MDM2, a p53-specific E3 ubiquitin ligase, is the principal cellular antagonist of p53, acting to limit the p53 growth-suppressive function in unstressed cells. In unstressed cells, MDM2 constantly monoubiquitinates p53 and thus is the critical step in...
متن کاملEnergetic Landscape of MDM2-p53 Interactions by Computational Mutagenesis of the MDM2-p53 Interaction
The ubiquitin ligase MDM2, a principle regulator of the tumor suppressor p53, plays an integral role in regulating cellular levels of p53 and thus a prominent role in current cancer research. Computational analysis used MUMBO to rotamerize the MDM2-p53 crystal structure 1YCR to obtain an exhaustive search of point mutations, resulting in the calculation of the ΔΔG comprehensive energy landscape...
متن کاملStructural Basis for Inhibition of the MDM2:p53 Interaction by an Optimized MDM2-Binding Peptide Selected with mRNA Display
The oncoprotein MDM2 binds to tumor suppressor protein p53 and inhibits its anticancer activity, which leads to promotion of tumor cell growth and tumor survival. Abrogation of the p53:MDM2 interaction reportedly results in reactivation of the p53 pathway and inhibition of tumor cell proliferation. We recently performed rigorous selection of MDM2-binding peptides by means of mRNA display and id...
متن کاملp53 alpha-Helix mimetics antagonize p53/MDM2 interaction and activate p53.
Overexpression or hyperactivation of MDM2 contributes to functional inactivation of wild-type p53 in nearly 50% of tumors. Inhibition of p53 by MDM2 depends on binding between an NH(2)-terminal (residues 16-28) p53 alpha-helical peptide and a hydrophobic pocket on MDM2, presenting an attractive target for development of inhibitors against tumors expressing wild-type p53. Here we report that nov...
