Crystal structure of human MDM2 in complex with a potent miniature protein inhibitor (18-residues)
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 ConservationCheck, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMed[Image: see text] The oncoproteins MDM2 and MDMX negatively regulate the activity and stability of the tumor suppressor protein p53, and are important molecular targets for anticancer therapy. Grafting four residues critical for MDM2/MDMX binding to the C-terminal alpha-helix of apamin converts the bee-venom neurotoxin into a novel class of potent p53 activators with potential antitumor activity. Apamin as a template for structure-based rational design of potent peptide activators of p53.,Li C, Pazgier M, Liu M, Lu WY, Lu W Angew Chem Int Ed Engl. 2009;48(46):8712-5. doi: 10.1002/anie.200904550.
