چکیده

The tumor suppressor protein PML and oncoprotein MDM2 have opposing effects on p53. PML stimulates p53 activity by recruiting it to nuclear foci termed PML nuclear bodies. In contrast, MDM2 inhibits p53 by promoting its degradation. To date, neither a physical nor functional relationship between PML and MDM2 has been described. In this study, we report an in vivo and in vitro interaction between PML and MDM2 which is independent of p53. Two separate regions of PML are recognized which can interact with MDM2. The C-terminal half of PML, encoded by residues 300-633, can interact with the central region of MDM2 which includes the MDM2 acidic domain. In addition, PML amino acids 1-200, which encode the RING-finger and most of the B box zinc binding motifs, can interact with the C-terminal, RING-finger containing region of MDM2. Interestingly, PML mutants in which sumoylation at lysine 160 was inhibited displayed an increased association with MDM2, suggesting that sumoylation at this site may be a determinant of PML-MDM2 binding. Coexpression with MDM2 caused a redistribution of PML from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, and this required the PML N terminus and the MDM2 RING-finger domain. These results suggest that interaction between the PML N terminus and MDM2 C terminus can promote PML nuclear exclusion. Wild-type MDM2 inhibited the ability of PML to stimulate the transcriptional activity of a GAL4-CBP fusion protein. This inhibition required the central, acidic region of MDM2, but did not require the MDM2 C terminus. Taken together, these studies demonstrate that MDM2 and PML can interact through at least two separate protein regions, and that these interactions can have specific effects on the activity and/or localization of PML.

MDM2 and promyelocytic leukemia antagonize each other through their direct interaction with p53.

p53 can be regulated through post-translational modifications and through interactions with positive and negative regulatory factors. MDM2 binding inhibits p53 and promotes its degradation by the proteasome, whereas promyelocytic leukemia (PML) activates p53 by recruiting it to multiprotein complexes termed PML-nuclear bodies. We reported previously an in vivo and in vitro interaction between P...

Cellular stress and DNA damage invoke temporally distinct Mdm2, p53 and PML complexes and damage-specific nuclear relocalization.

Mdm2 is a nucleoplasmic and nucleolar protein interacting with p53 and alternative reading frame (ARF) tumor suppressor proteins. Here we demonstrate relocalization and novel interactions of Mdm2 with the promyelocytic leukemia (PML) protein following cellular stress and DNA damage. We show that Mdm2 and PML interact directly in vivo and in vitro depending on the Mdm2 RING finger domain and the...

Lack of an Association between a Functional Polymorphism in the MDM2 Promoter and Breast Cancer in Women in Northeast Iran

Background: Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among women worldwide. Tumor protein 53 (TP53) and its regulator the mouse double murine 2 (MDM2) have important roles in tumorigenesis by playing key roles in cell division and response to DNA damage. MDM2 SNP309 T>G (rs2279744) polymorphism in the promoter region of MDM2 gene can cause dysfunction and inactivation of TP53 which promo...

Reconstitution of Mdm2-Dependent Post-Translational Modifications of p53 in Yeast

p53 mediates cell cycle arrest or apoptosis in response to DNA damage. Its activity is subject to a tight regulation involving a multitude of post-translational modifications. The plethora of functional protein interactions of p53 at present precludes a clear understanding of regulatory principles in the p53 signaling network. To circumvent this complexity, we studied here the minimal requireme...

Dynamical patterns of p53 states driven by PML

Recent studies suggest that PML (Promyelocytic Leukemia) suppresses p53 protein degradation by inhibiting MDM2 protein in the nucleus [1], and regulates a number of biological functions [2]. We modeled a PML-MDM2-p53 regulatory network by integrating p53-MDM2 autoregulatory model [3] and related PML pathways. We found that p53 dynamics switched at various dynamical states induced by PML which c...
