HDM2 and HDMX are two homologs essential for controlling p53 tumor suppressor activity under normal conditions. Both proteins bind different sites on the p53 N‐terminus, and while HDM2 has E3 ubiquitin ligase activity towards p53, HDMX does not. Nevertheless, HDMX is required for p53 polyubiquitination and degradation, but the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear. Alone, HDMX and HDM2 interact...
