By preventing this HDM2-p53 interaction, the proteosome-mediated enzymatic degradation of p53 is inhibited, which may result in the restoration of p53 signaling and, thus, the p53-mediated induction of tumor cell apoptosis.
(p53/HDM2 Interaction Inhibitor CGM097, NCI Thesaurus)
CaMKII, CaMKI and CaMKIV, have an autoregulatory domain that restricts or inhibits enzymatic activity in the absence of calcium/CaM.
(Calmodulin Pathway, NCI Thesaurus/BIOCARTA)
