Covalent modification of the oncogene product Mdm2 by the ubiquitin-related protein SUMO1 protects it from ubiquitination and enhances its E3 ligase activity towards p53 in vitro. Disappearance of ...

MDM2, on the other hand, is one of the most frequently studied oncogenes and is an excellent target for cancer therapy, based on its p53-dependent and p53-independent oncogenic activities in ...

Navtemadlin is an MDM2 inhibitor that can help to kill cancer cells by boosting the activity of p53, a protein that controls cell growth and induces cell death in response to DNA damage.

Researchers from Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research, The University of Melbourne and affiliated organizations presented the development of a new reporter mouse model designed to study ...

Western blot assays were performed to identify the presence of p53, phospho-p53, and murine double minute 2 (MDM2) isoforms in plasma samples. Densitometric analysis was used to determine the ...

For instance, the study outlines the role of MDM2, an E3 ubiquitin ligase that targets p53, a well-known tumor suppressor protein. Dysregulation of MDM2 leads to uncontrolled tumor growth ...

Previous research revealed that nuclear factor of activated T cells 1 (NFAT1) is a novel regulator of the mouse double minute 2 homolog (MDM2) oncogene, which acts by directly binding to the MDM2 P2 ...
