Product Overview
Purified recombinant protein of Human Mdm2 p53 binding protein homolog (mouse) (MDM2), transcript variant MDM2, Gln119-Leu438, with N-terminal HIS tag, expressed in E. coli.
Description
This gene encodes a nuclear-localized E3 ubiquitin ligase. The encoded protein can promote tumor formation by targeting tumor suppressor proteins, such as p53, for proteasomal degradation. This gene is itself transcriptionally-regulated by p53. Overexpression or amplification of this locus is detected in a variety of different cancers. There is a pseudogene for this gene on chromosome 2. Alternative splicing results in a multitude of transcript variants, many of which may be expressed only in tumor cells.
