Impact of Ser17 Phosphorylation on the Conformational Dynamics of the Oncoprotein MDM2.
- J. Bueren-Calabuig, J. Michel
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Biochemistry
- 18 April 2016
MDM2 is an important oncoprotein that downregulates the activity of the tumor suppressor protein p53 via binding of its N-terminal domain to the p53 transactivation domain. The first 24 residues of… Expand
A structural study of the complex between neuroepithelial cell transforming gene 1 (Net1) and RhoA reveals a potential anticancer drug hot spot
- Alain-Pierre Petit, Christel Garcia-Petit, J. Bueren-Calabuig, L. Vuillard, G. Ferry, J. Boutin
- Chemistry, Medicine
