Abstract

The adenovirus E1B-55-kDa protein binds and inactivates the tumor suppressor protein p53. However, the role of this interaction during infection is still poorly understood and was therefore examined here. Infection with a virus carrying the E1B-55-kDa mutation R239A, preventing the interaction with p53, led to the accumulation of p53. However, p53 target genes were not activated in the infected cells, although p53 phosphorylation did occur and the p53 antagonists Mdm2 and deltaNp73 did not accumulate. Deletion of E4orf6, alone or in combination with E1B-55-kDa, did not allow the induction of p53-responsive genes either. In transient reporter assays, the viral E1A-13S protein antagonized p53 activity; mutational analysis suggested that this depends partially on p300 binding, but it depends even more strongly on the interaction of E1A with the p400/TRRAP protein complex. However, viruses expressing E1A mutants lacking these binding activities, in combination with E1B-55-kDa R239A, still abolished p53 activity. In contrast, when the mutation of E1B-55-kDa at R239A was combined with a deletion of the apoptosis inhibitor E1B-19-kDa, infected cells showed more extensive apoptosis than after infection with single mutants, suggesting t...Continue Reading

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
