The role of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 in the MDM2-p53 DNA damage response pathway

p53 is a tumour suppressor protein that is stabilised and activated by DNA damage. DNA damage-induced p53 is able to bring about either cell cycle arrest or apoptosis by the induction of p53-responsive genes such as mdm2 and p21 waf-I. Mdm2 regulates p53 function by blocking the transcriptional tran...
