Abstract:<div>Abstract<p>The role of MYC in regulating p53 stability as a function of increased ribosome biogenesis is controversial. On the one hand, it was suggested that MYC drives the overexpression of ribosomal proteins (RP)L5 and RPL11, which bind and inhibit HDM2, stabilizing p53. On the other, it has been proposed that increased ribosome biogenesis leads the consumption of RPL5/RPL11 into nascent ribosomes, reducing p53 levels and enhancing tumorigenesis. Here, we show that the components that make … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
