Biological function summary
The MDM2 protein plays a central role in cell cycle control and apoptosis regulation. It forms a complex with p53 which modulates p53's stability and activity. By binding to p53 MDM2 prevents p53 from inducing cell cycle arrest or apoptosis in response to DNA damage or oncogenic signals. Its interaction allows cells to proliferate even in the presence of potential growth-arrest signals maintaining homeostasis under normal physiological conditions.
Pathways
MDM2 and p53 form a critical axis within the DNA damage response and tumorigenesis pathways. The p53-MDM2 feedback loop is a well-studied mechanism that balances cell survival and death. When DNA damage occurs p53 gets activated and in turn upregulates MDM2 expression creating a feedback loop. Other proteins like ARF also interact with MDM2 inhibiting its activity towards p53 and thereby enhancing p53 function during cellular stress.
