Abstract
Murine double minute (MDM2) is an E3 ligase that promotes ubiquitination and degradation of tumor suppressor protein 53 (p53). MDM2-mediated regulation of p53 has been investigated as a classical tumorigenesis pathway. Here, we describe TRIAD1 as a novel modulator of the p53-MDM2 axis that induces p53 activation by inhibiting its regulation by MDM2. Ablation of TRIAD1 attenuates p53 levels activity upon DNA damage, whereas ectopic expression of TRIAD1 promotes p53 stability by inhibiting MDM2-mediated ubiquitination/degradation. Moreover, TRIAD1 binds to the C-terminus of p53 to promote its dissociation from MDM2. These results implicate TRIAD1 as a novel regulatory factor of p53-MDM2.Structured summary of protein interactions:p53 physically interacts with Mdm2 and Triad1 by anti tag coimmunoprecipitation (View Interaction: 1, 2, 3)Mdm2physically interacts with Triad1 by anti tag coimmunoprecipitation (View interaction)p53physically interacts with Mdm2 by anti tag coimmunoprecipitation (View interaction)Triad1binds to p53 by pull down (View interaction)Mdm2physically interacts with p53 by anti tag coimmunoprecipitation (View interaction)p53physically interacts with Triad1 by anti tag coimmunoprecipitation (View interaction)
