Research Abstract |
The expression of the RBM5 mRNA is decreased in cancer tissues. Overexpression of RBM5 enhanced p53-mediated inhibition of cancer cell growth and colony formation. RBM5 affected p53 transcriptional activity and levels of mRNA and protein for endogenous p53 target genes. RBM5 influenced protein, but not mRNA, levels of endogenous p53 suggesting that RBM5 contributes to p53 activity through post-transcriptional mechanisms. Our results show that RBM5 contributes to p53 transcriptional activity, and that growth suppression and apoptosis mediated by RBM5 are linked to activity of the tumor suppressor protein p53.
