Ubiquitination‐resistant p53 protein transduction therapy facilitates anti‐cancer effect on the growth of human malignant glioma cells

抄録

<jats:p>Protein transduction therapy using poly‐arginine can deliver the bioactive p53 protein into cancer cells and inhibits the proliferation of the cells. However, one disadvantage of such therapy is the short intracellular half‐life of the delivered protein. Here, we generated mutant proteins in which multiple lysine residues in the C‐terminal were substituted by arginines. The mutant proteins were effectively delivered in glioma cells and were resistant to Mdm2‐mediated ubiquitination. Moreover, the mutant proteins displayed higher transcription regulatory activity and powerful inhibition of the proliferation of glioma cells. These results suggest that ubiquitination‐resistant p53 protein therapy may become a new effective cancer therapy.</jats:p>
