Abstract

ARF and p53 in oncogenic stress Of the known tumour suppressors, ARF and p53 are among the most relevant clinically, with p53 loss or inactivation found in more than half of human cancers and ARF known to activate p53 during oncogenic stress. A study of the mechanism of ARF-mediated p53 activation now shows that ARF is unstable in normal human cells but stable in cancer cells. In normal cells ARF ubiquitination and degradation is promoted by a ligase termed ULF (ubiquitin ligase for ARF), and this activity is abrogated in cancer cells.
