Mdm2 can mediate p53 ubiquitylation and degradation either in the form of the Mdm2 homodimer or Mdm2/MdmX heterodimer. The ubiquitin ligase activity of these complexes resides mainly in their respective RING finger domains and also requires adjacent C-terminal tails. So far, structural studies have failed to show significant differences between Mdm2 RING homodimers and Mdm2/MdmX RING heterodimers. Here, we report that not only the primary amino acid sequence, but also the length of the C-terminal tail of Mdm2 is highly conserved through evolution and plays an important role in Mdm2 activity toward p53. Mdm2 mutants with extended C termini do not ubiquitylate p53 despite being capable of forming Mdm2 homodimers through both RING-acidic domain and RING-RING interactions. All extended mutants also retained the ability to interact with MdmX, and this interaction led to reactivation of their E3 ubiquitin ligase activity. In contrast, only a subset of extended Mdm2 mutants was activated by the interaction with Mdm2 RING domain, suggesting that Mdm2 homodimers and Mdm2/MdmX heterodimers may not be structurally and functionally fully equivalent.
