The p53-mdm2 autoregulatory feedback loop: a paradigm for the regulation of growth control by p53?

The p53 gene product is a tumor that is frequently inactivated during the development of cancer, and efforts to identify p53 target genes has revealed the mdm2, an oncogene originally found on mouse double minute chromosomes. The emergence of a p53-mdm2 regulatory loop has illuminated a circuit by w...

Zusammenfassung:The p53 gene product is a tumor that is frequently inactivated during the development of cancer, and efforts to identify p53 target genes has revealed the mdm2, an oncogene originally found on mouse double minute chromosomes. The emergence of a p53-mdm2 regulatory loop has illuminated a circuit by which p53 might might control cell growth.
