MAGE-A antigens as targets in tumour therapyDavid W Meek
Division of Cancer Research, Medical Research Institute, College of Medicine, Dentistry and Nursing, University of Dundee, Ninewells Hospital, Dundee DD1 9SY, United Kingdom
Cancer Lett 324:126-32. 2012..Here we review recent progress in this area and consider how these interactions might be exploited, especially for the treatment of malignant cancers for which available treatments are inadequate...
Immunohistochemical detection of Polo-like kinase-1 (PLK1) in primary breast cancer is associated with TP53 mutation and poor clinical outcomSharon I King
Division of Cancer Research, Medical Research Institute, Ninewells Hospital and Medical School, University of Dundee, Dundee DD1 9SY, UK
Breast Cancer Res 14:R40. 2012..Consistent with this model, cultured cells lacking p53 fail to repress PLK1 expression. This study examined PLK1 expression, p53 mutation and clinical outcome in breast cancer...
Induction and activation of the p53 pathway: a role for the protein kinase CK2?David W Meek
Biomedical Research Institute, Ninewells Hospital, University of Dundee, Dundee DD1 9SY, UK
Mol Cell Biochem 356:133-8. 2011....
Tumour suppression by p53: a role for the DNA damage response?David W Meek
Biomedical Research Institute, Ninewells Hospital and Medical School, University of Dundee, Dundee DD1 9SY, UK
Nat Rev Cancer 9:714-23. 2009..The relationship between these events and oncogene-induced p53 activation through the ARF pathway is also discussed...
The regulation of MDM2 by multisite phosphorylation--opportunities for molecular-based intervention to target tumours?David W Meek
Biomedical Research Institute, The University of Dundee, Ninewells Hospital, Biomedical Research Institute, Dundee, United Kingdom
Semin Cancer Biol 20:19-28. 2010..This analysis also provides an opportunity to consider the signalling pathways regulating MDM2 as potential targets for non-genotoxic therapies aimed at restoring p53 function in tumour cells...
Posttranslational modification of p53: cooperative integrators of functionDavid W Meek
Biomedical Research Institute, Ninewells Hospital and Medical School, University of Dundee, Dundee DD1 9SY, UK
Cold Spring Harb Perspect Biol 1:a000950. 2009..The present article focuses on recent, exciting progress and develops the idea that the impact of modification on p53 function is achieved through collective and integrated events...
p53-dependent repression of polo-like kinase-1 (PLK1)Lynsey McKenzie
Biomedical Research Institute, University of Dundee, Dundee, UK
Cell Cycle 9:4200-12. 2010..These data establish PLK1 as a direct transcriptional target of p53, independently of p21, that is required for efficient G₂/M arrest...
Polo-like kinase-1 phosphorylates MDM2 at Ser260 and stimulates MDM2-mediated p53 turnoverSylvia S Dias
Biomedical Research Institute, Ninewells Hospital and Medical School, University of Dundee, Dundee DD1 9SY, United Kingdom
FEBS Lett 583:3543-8. 2009..These data are consistent with the idea that deregulation of PLK1 during tumourigenesis may help suppress p53 function...
Phosphorylation of serine 392 in p53 is a common and integral event during p53 induction by diverse stimuliMiranda L Cox
Biomedical Research Institute, University of Dundee, Ninewells Hospital and Medical School, Dundee DD1 9SY, United Kingdom
Cell Signal 22:564-71. 2010..These data suggest that, physiologically, Ser392 may be phosphorylated by an, as yet, unidentified protein kinase...
Mage-A cancer/testis antigens inhibit p53 function by blocking its interaction with chromatinLynnette Marcar
Biomedical Research Institute, Ninewells Hospital and Medical School, University of Dundee, Dundee, United Kingdom
Cancer Res 70:10362-70. 2010..These data reveal a novel mechanism by which Mage-A proteins may suppress the p53 transcriptional program during tumor development and highlight the p53/Mage-A interaction as a prospective therapeutic target...

Biomedical Research Centre, Ninewells Hospital and Medical School, Dundee DD1 9SY, UK
DNA Repair (Amst) 3:1049-56. 2004....
14-3-3 Binding to Pim-phosphorylated Ser166 and Ser186 of human Mdm2--Potential interplay with the PKB/Akt pathway and p14(ARF)Nicola T Wood
MRC Protein Phosphorylation Unit, Sir James Black Centre, College of Life Sciences, University of Dundee, Dundee DD1 5EH, Scotland, UK
FEBS Lett 583:615-20. 2009..The implications of these findings for regulation of the p53 pathway, oncogenesis and drug discovery are discussed...
Posttranslational modification of MDM2David W Meek
Biomedical Research Centre, Ninewells Hospital and Medical School, University of Dundee, Dundee DD1 9SY, Scotland, United Kingdom
Mol Cancer Res 1:1017-26. 2003..In this review, we summarize our current knowledge of the role of posttranslational modifications of MDM2 and their functional relevance...
