Mutant Cbl proteins as oncogenic drivers in myeloproliferative disorders
Casitas B-lineage lymphoma (Cbl) family proteins are evolutionarily-conserved attenuators of protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) signaling. Biochemical analyses over the past two decades have firmly established that the negative regulatory functions of Cbl proteins are mediated through their ability to facilitate ubiquitination and thus promote degradation of PTKs. As aberrant activation of PTKs is f...
متن کاملOncogenic Signaling by Leukemia-Associated Mutant Cbl Proteins.
Members of the Cbl protein family (Cbl, Cbl-b, and Cbl-c) are E3 ubiquitin ligases that have emerged as critical negative regulators of protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) signaling. This function reflects their ability to directly interact with activated PTKs and to target them as well as their associated signaling components for ubiquitination. Given the critical roles of PTK signaling in driving o...
متن کاملRibosomal proteins: a novel class of oncogenic drivers
With a diameter of ~30 nm and a mass of ~4.3 MDa, human ribosomes are structurally and functionally sophisticated cytoplasmic giants. Half of this mass comes from the 81 ribosomal proteins (RPs) which, formerly erroneously believed to simply act as dispensable assistants of the catalytic ribosomal RNA (rRNA), are in many cases essential for ribosomal functioning. Ribosomes can mechanistically b...
متن کاملOncogenic proteins as tumor antigens.
Human immune responses to oncogenic proteins have been reported and are continuing to be defined. Immunity to nonmutated overexpressed oncoproteins as well as to mutated or unique cancer-specific oncoproteins has been identified. Immune system based treatments targeting oncogenic proteins have shown therapeutic efficacy in animals models and are currently being translated into human clinical tr...
متن کاملTargeting oncogenic drivers.
Cancer is a genetic disease caused by a series of somatic and/or germline mutations. The roles of oncogenes and tumor suppressors in cancer molecular origin have been well established. Targeting oncogene products has become an attractive therapeutic strategy with great clinical success, whereas tumor suppressors are considered 'undruggable' because current technology is not able to restore tumo...
