HdmX stimulates Hdm2-mediated ubiquitination and degradation of p53
Open accessAbstract
The RING finger proteins HdmX and Hdm2 share significant structural and functional similarity. Hdm2 is a member of the RING finger family of ubiquitin-protein ligases E3 and targets the tumor suppressor protein p53 for degradation. Although HdmX also binds to p53, HdmX does not induce p53 degradation. Moreover, HdmX has been reported to interfere with p53 degradation in overexpression experiments. To obtain insight into the mechanism by which HdmX interferes with p53 degradation, we studied the effect of HdmX on the E3 activity of Hdm2 in vitro. Surprisingly, this revealed that HdmX stimulates Hdm2-mediated ubiquitination of p53 and that HdmX facilitates ubiquitination of Hdm2 and vice versa. In addition, down-regulation of HdmX expression within cells results in the accumulation of both p53 and Hdm2. Because HdmX alone does not have appreciable E3 activity, these data indicate that HdmX acts as a stimulator, rather than as an inhibitor, of the E3 activity of Hdm2 and that, at least under certain conditions, HdmX is actively involved in the degradation of both p53 and Hdm2.

In the citing paper
“Mdm4 further contributes to Mdm2 stability by disrupting self-ubiquitination of the latter (Stad et al., 2001), while also stimulating Mdm2-mediated polyubiquitination of p53 (Linares et al., 2003).”

In the citing paper
“Despite conservation of the C2H2C4 RING domain, Mdmx shows little intrinsic ubiquitin ligase activity towards p53 [10].”

In the citing paper
“Together with the observation that the Mdm2–Mdmx hetero-oligomer is a more effective ligase for p53 in vitro than Mdm2 alone [10], this has led to a model in which the Mdm2–Mdmx ligase complex is more efficient in targeting p53 for ubiquitylation and degradation.”

In the citing paper
“By contrast, MDMX does not homo-oligomerize and has no intrinsic ubiquitin ligase function, although it can increase or decrease MDM2 ubiquitin ligase activity depending on MDMX abundance16.”

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.
