Cancer-associated mutations in the MDM2 zinc finger domain disrupt ribosomal protein interaction and attenuate MDM2-induced p53 degradationMikael S Lindström
Department of Radiation Oncology, School of Medicine, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC 27599 7512, USA
Mol Cell Biol 27:1056-68. 2007..Hence, the MDM2 central zinc finger plays a critical role in mediating MDM2's interaction with ribosomal proteins and its ability to degrade p53, and these roles are disrupted by human cancer-associated MDM2 mutations...

Department of Radiation Oncology, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Medicine, Chapel Hill, North Carolina 27599, USA
Cell Cycle 6:434-7. 2007..Here we further discuss these findings and propose the existence of a ribosomal protein-MDM2-p53 surveillance network responsible for monitoring the stability of the transition between cell growth and division...
Ribosomal protein S9 is a novel B23/NPM-binding protein required for normal cell proliferationMikael S Lindström
Department of Radiation Oncology, University of North Carolina School of Medicine, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, North Carolina 27599 7512, USA
J Biol Chem 283:15568-76. 2008..Our results suggest that B23 selectively stores, and protects ribosomal protein S9 in nucleoli and therefore could facilitate ribosome biogenesis...
Nitric oxide induces phosphorylation of p53 and impairs nuclear exportNicole Schneiderhan
Department of Cell Biology, Faculty of Biology, University of Kaiserslautern, Erwin Schrodinger Strasse, 67663 Kaiserslautern, Germany
Oncogene 22:2857-68. 2003..This was verified by heterokaryon analysis. We conclude that attenuated nuclear export contributes to stabilization and activation of p53 under the influence of NO...
