Accelerated MDM2 auto‐degradation induced by DNA‐damage kinases is required for p53 activation
Open accessAbstract
p53 activation prevents the proliferation of genetically unstable cells. Conversely, p53 antagonism by its transcriptional target, the E3 ubiquitin ligase MDM2, is critical for the viability of unstressed, cycling cells. We demonstrate that MDM2 induces the degradation of p53 in both the nucleus and the cytoplasm. As p53 and MDM2 accumulate in the nuclei of stressed cells, we investigated mechanisms enabling p53 activation despite the high MDM2 levels generated during a DNA-damage response. We show that DNA damage destabilized MDM2 by a mechanism involving damage-activated kinases and MDM2 auto-ubiquitination. p53 was stable and transcriptionally active when MDM2 was unstable, but became unstable and inactive as the damage response waned and MDM2 stabilized. Importantly, blocking MDM2 destabilization in DNA-damaged cells prevented p53 target gene activation. Our data reveal that controlled MDM2 degradation is an important new step in p53 regulation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
