The discovery of p73, a p53-related protein with various isotypes resulting from different promoter usage or splicing events, provided new insights into regulation of neurogenesis and tumorigenesis. Among p73 isoforms described thus far, TA-truncated molecules (DeltaN) appeared as key proteins according to their antagonistic activity against transcription factor activity of p53 family members. ...
UNLABELLED Mdm4 negatively regulates the p53 tumor suppressor. Mdm4 loss in mice leads to an embryonic lethal phenotype that is p53-dependent. Biochemical studies indicate that Mdm4 also binds p73, a member of the p53 family, with higher affinity than p53. In this study, the significance of the Mdm4 and p73 interaction in vivo during embryogenesis and tumorigenesis was examined. The data reveal...
The p73 gene encodes a protein that shares structural and functional homologies with the p53 tumor suppressor protein. To investigate the mechanism of transcriptional regulation of the p73 gene, we isolated a genomic DNA fragment spanning the 5' upstream region of the human p73 gene and characterized the promoter region. Unlike the p53 gene promoter, the human p73 gene promoter contained a puta...
A new p53 family member, p73, and its isoform DeltaNp73 are increasingly recognized in cancer research as important players in tumorigenesis, as well as in chemotherapeutic drug sensitivity. Despite substantial structural similarities to p53, accumulating evidence suggests that p53 and p73 may play different roles in human tumorigenesis. In this study, we have investigated the role of p73 and D...
The balance between transcription factor p73 and its functionally opposing N-terminally truncated ΔNp73 isoform is critical for cell survival, but the precise mechanism that regulates their levels is not clear. In our study, we identified WWP2, an E3 ligase, as a novel p73-associated protein that ubiquitinates and degrades p73. In contrast, WWP2 heterodimerizes with another E3 ligase, WWP1, whi...
BACKGROUND Solid tumors requires neovascularization for growth and metastasis. Angiogenesis depends on the local balance between positive and negative effectors, the production of which can be regulated by oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes. The aim of this study was to investigate expression of p73, a gene homologous to the tumor suppressor gene p53, in colorectal cancer and its relationship...
p73 has been recently identified as a new structural and functional homologue of the transcription factor p53. It is expressed in either a full-length form, alpha, or a shorter beta mRNA variant, with exon 13 spliced out. Here we report the identification and functional characterization of two new p73 splicing variants, gamma (splicing out exon 11) and delta (splicing out exons 11, 12, and 13)....
African swine fever virus (ASFV) is a large enveloped DNA virus that shares the striking icosahedral symmetry of iridoviruses. To understand the mechanism of assembly of ASFV, we have been studying the biosynthesis and subcellular distribution of p73, the major structural protein of ASFV. Sucrose density sedimentation of lysates prepared from infected cells showed that newly synthesized p73 was...
CONTEXT Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) consists of squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) arising in the upper aerodigestive tract and accounts for 5% of cancers worldwide. In Malaysia, cancers of the nasopharynx, larynx, tongue and oral cavity are among the top twenty most common cancers in men. Argyrophilic nuclear organizer regions (AgNORs) are increased from normal mucosa to premali...
Despite extensive studies on the role of tumor suppressor p53 protein and its homologues, p73 and p63, following their overexpression or cellular stress, very little is known about the regulation of the three proteins in cells during physiologic cell cycle progression. We report a role for p73 and p63 in supporting cellular proliferation through the transcriptional activation of the genes invol...
