Mdm2 affects genome stability independent of p53
Abstract
Mdm2 is a critical negative regulator of the p53 tumor suppressor and is frequently overexpressed in human cancers. However, reports, including our own studies, suggest that Mdm2 has both p53-dependent and p53-independent functions that contribute to genomic instability and transformation when deregulated. We recently elucidated a p53-independent role for Mdm2 in the regulation of the DNA double-strand break repair response, genomic stability, and transformation through interaction with Nbs1, a member of the Mre11/Rad50/Nbs1 DNA double-strand break repair complex. In light of these findings, targeting Mdm2 in human malignancies may have effects other than activating p53. [Cancer Res 2009;69(5):1697–701]

The Mdm2-Nbs1 interaction coupled with increased chromatid breaks due to increased Mdm2 levels can be a causative mechanism for p53-independent genomic instability and cellular transformation.
“The authors point out that this unique interaction coupled with increased chromatid breaks due to increased Mdm2 protein levels can be one causative mechanism for p53-independent genomic instability and cellular transformation [33].”

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.
