Significance We demonstrate that Akt phosphorylation of Mdm2 protein at Ser183 inhibits p53-mediated senescence and promotes ROS-induced tumorigenesis. Thus, different effector kinases can modify Mdm2 and selectively regulate the p53-mediated response to stress. Our study suggests that targeted inhibition of Mdm2 Ser183 phosphorylation would activate p53-mediated senescence and delay tumor progression.
