MDM2 rabbit pAb

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.

Subcellular Location

Nucleus, nucleoplasm. Cytoplasm . Nucleus, nucleolus. Nucleus . Expressed predominantly in the nucleoplasm. Interaction with ARF (P14) results in the localization of both proteins to the nucleolus. The nucleolar localization signals in both ARF (P14) and MDM2 may be necessary to allow efficient nucleolar localization of both proteins. Colocalizes with RASSF1 isoform A in the nucleus.
