Cisplatin binds to the MDM2 RING finger domain and inhibits the ubiquitination activity

Abstract

Cisplatin can directly bind to the RING finger domain of MDM2, leading to the zinc-release and protein unfolding. Consequently, cisplatin inhibits the MDM2-mediated ubiquitination, which is the molecular basis of p53 activation. This work provides insight into the cisplatin-induced p53-elevation that is involved in cell apoptosis.
