Structure of human MDM2 protein in complex with a small molecule inhibitor
Structural highlights
DiseaseMDM2_HUMAN Note=Seems to be amplified in certain tumors (including soft tissue sarcomas, osteosarcomas and gliomas). A higher frequency of splice variants lacking p53 binding domain sequences was found in late-stage and high-grade ovarian and bladder carcinomas. Four of the splice variants show loss of p53 binding. FunctionMDM2_HUMAN E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that mediates ubiquitination of p53/TP53, leading to its degradation by the proteasome. Inhibits p53/TP53- and p73/TP73-mediated cell cycle arrest and apoptosis by binding its transcriptional activation domain. Also acts as an ubiquitin ligase E3 toward itself and ARRB1. Permits the nuclear export of p53/TP53. Promotes proteasome-dependent ubiquitin-independent degradation of retinoblastoma RB1 protein. Inhibits DAXX-mediated apoptosis by inducing its ubiquitination and degradation. Component of the TRIM28/KAP1-MDM2-p53/TP53 complex involved in stabilizing p53/TP53. Also component of the TRIM28/KAP1-ERBB4-MDM2 complex which links growth factor and DNA damage response pathways. Mediates ubiquitination and subsequent proteasome degradation of DYRK2 in nucleus. Ubiquitinates IGF1R and promotes it to proteasomal degradation.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedIntensive anticancer drug discovery efforts have been made to develop small molecule inhibitors of the p53-MDM2 and p53-MDMX interactions. We present here the structures of the most potent inhibitors bound to MDM2 and MDMX that are based on the new imidazo-indole scaffold. In addition, the structure of the recently reported spiro-oxindole inhibitor bound to MDM2 is described. The structures indicate how the substituents of a small molecule that bind to the three subpockets of the MDM2/X-p53 interaction should be optimized for effective binding to MDM2 and/or MDMX. While the spiro-oxindole inhibitor triggers significant ligand-induced changes in MDM2, the imidazo-indoles share similar binding modes for MDMX and MDM2, but cause only minimal induced-fit changes in the structures of both proteins. Our study includes the first structure of the complex between MDMX and a small molecule and should aid in developing efficient scaffolds for binding to MDMX and/or MDM2. Structures of low molecular weight inhibitors bound to MDMX and MDM2 reveal new approaches for p53-MDMX/MDM2 antagonist drug discovery.,Popowicz GM, Czarna A, Wolf S, Wang K, Wang W, Domling A, Holak TA Cell Cycle. 2010 Mar 15;9(6):1104-11. doi: 10.4161/cc.9.6.10956.
