...Both fulllength MDM4 and MDM2 demonstrated oncogenic potential via inhibition of tumor suppressor p53 (4,5)....
[...]
...Both MDM4 and MDM2 were shown to be crucial inhibitors of the tumor suppressor p53 protein (4,5), and MDM4 is considered to be a negative regulator of the growth arrest mediated by p53 (27)....

...The murine double minute (MDM) family members are key regulators of levels and activity of the oncosuppressor p53 [1]....

...MDM4 has been reported as inhibitor of p53mediated growth arrest [1]; thus, it might be hypothesized that the presence of MDM4 may predispose to multifocality and tumor development, while a decrease in its expression may confer an advantage to tumor progression....

...In recent years, another member of the MDM family, MDM4 (also named MDMX) has come into the limelight and its function in the inactivation of p53 has been revealed by molecular and genetic approaches [1, 3]....

...In view of the suggested strategies for abrogation of MDM4 in human tumors [1, 3], our findings counsel acquisition of more information on the molecular functions of this protein in different human tumors in order to carefully evaluate the application of such therapies....

...We have recently shown that Ubc13, an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme, elicits K63-dependent ubiquitination of p53, which attenuates Hdm2-dependent polyubiquitination and subsequent degradation of p53 (7)....

...In particular, the ribosomal protein L26, whose stability is regulated by the p53 ubiquitin ligases Hdm2, has been shown to bind and regulate the translation of p53 mRNA (13, 14)....

...In nonstressed cells, p53 levels are relatively low because of its short half-life regulated by ubiquitin ligases, including Hdm2 (5, 6)....
[...]
...The likely candidates are Hdm2, which has been directly implicated in the regulation of p53 mRNA translation (13), PARC, which regulates p53 stability within large molecular weight complexes in the cytosol (15), and MSL2 and WWP1, which were shown to promote p53 ubiquitination without affecting its stability (16, 17)....
