Human tumor suppressor p53 and DNA viruses

Abstract: Human tumor suppressor protein p53 plays a major role in the cell cycle, orchestrating a number of important genes involved in cell-cycle control and apoptosis, and seems to be one of the most important molecules protecting cells from malignant transformation. Mutations in the p53 gene are observed in about 50% of primary tumors, inducing defective p53 protein no longer capable of binding DNA and of activating transcription. Certain DNA viruses are thought to act in a similar way and may also contribute to the… Show more

“…1 Generally, the regulation of p53 functions by viral oncoproteins involves mainly the alteration of its post-translational modifications ubiquitylation, acetylation or phosphorylation. 2 Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) encodes several proteins that can compromise p53 activity, including the latency-associated nuclear antigen 2 (LANA2) (also called vIRF3).…”

“…Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) induces phosphorylation of p53 at Ser15 and 20 (Boutell & Everett, 2004;Shirata et al, 2005), and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) induces phosphorylation at Ser6, 9, 15, 33, 46, 315 and 392 (Mauser et al, 2002;Kudoh et al, 2005). Nevertheless, knowledge regarding human herpesvirus-induced p53 phosphorylation is limited (Collot-Teixeira et al, 2004), and even less is known about the kinases responsible for the virusinduced phosphorylation events on p53.…”

“…Inactivation of p53 protein can be induced by some viruses implicated in the development of cancer (6,31) as one of the viral mechanisms to inhibit apoptosis and prolong the survival of the virus. However, viruses with no tumorigenic potential and double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) have also been shown to downregulate p53 (14,25), suggesting the importance of p53 in host response to viruses.…”
