Regions of SV40 large T antigen necessary for oligomerization and complex formation with the cellular oncoprotein p53.
The simian virus 40 (SV40) T antigen is composed of 708 amino acids and forms monomers and various oligomers and, in small amounts, heterologous complexes with the cellular oncoprotein p53 (T-p53). Using SV40 mutants coding for T antigen fragments which are either deleted in the N-terminal half or truncated by various lengths at the C-terminal end, we found that a region between amino acids 114...
متن کاملUltraslow oligomerization equilibria of p53 and its implications.
The tumor suppressor p53 is in equilibrium at cellular concentrations between dimers and tetramers. Oncogenic mutant p53 (mut) exerts a dominant-negative effect on co-expression of p53 wild-type (wt) and mut alleles in cancer cells. It is believed that wt and mut form hetero-tetramers of attenuated activity, via their tetramerization domains. Using electrospray mass spectrometry on isotopically...
متن کاملRegulation of p53 oligomerization by Ras superfamily protein RBEL1A
UNLABELLED Our previous studies showed that RBEL1A overexpressed in multiple human malignancies and its depletion by RNAi caused severe growth inhibition in tumor cells. We also showed that RBEL1A directly interacted with p53 and such interactions occurred at the oligomeric domain of p53. However, the effect of such interactions on p53 oligomerization and function remained to be investigated. H...
متن کاملAdenovirus E1B oncoprotein tethers a transcriptional repression domain to p53.
Many DNA tumor viruses express a protein that inhibits transcriptional activation by the tumor-suppressing transcription factor p53. We report that adenovirus E1B 55K represses p53-mediated activation by a mechanism not described previously. E1B 55K binds p53 without displacing it from its DNA-binding site. A fusion of E1B 55K to the GAL4 DNA-binding domain represses transcription from a variet...
متن کاملHuman papillomavirus oncoprotein E6 upregulates c-Met through p53 downregulation.
PURPOSE Human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) carries a distinct clinical behaviour. c-Met oncogene is an important driver for tumour progression and its relationship with HPV in OPSCC was explored in the present study. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Knockdown of HPV oncogene E6 or p53 alone and in combination was performed to examine their effects on c-Met ...
