"When DNA is damaged, p53 binds to the P2 promoter of Mdm2 , which leads to increased Mdm2 levels and subsequent decreased p53 levels. xref generated point mutations in the P2 promoter that disrupt interactions with p53 ( Mdm2 P2/P2 mice) to examine the significance of the Mdm2-p53 feedback loop (Figure xref A) ( xref )."

"In addition, MDM2 also promotes the interaction of the SUMO E3 ligase PIASy with p53 and induces the sumoylation and nuclear export of p53, xref , xref consequently inhibiting the binding ofp53 to transcriptional coactivators and decreasing p53-mediated transcription of the downstream target genes, including MDM2 . xref On the other hand, p53 directly binds to the p53-responsive P2 promoter of MDM2 and mediates transcription of the MDM2 gene. xref The increased MDM2 protein, in turn, binds to p53 and promotes its degradation and inhibits its transcriptional activity, therefore forming the MDM2–p53 negative feedback loop ( xref )."
