Skp2 directs Myc-mediated suppression of p27Kip1 yet has modest effects on Myc-driven lymphomagenesis.
The universal cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27(Kip1) functions as a tumor suppressor, and reduced levels of p27(Kip1) connote poor prognosis in several human malignancies. p27(Kip1) levels are predominately regulated by ubiquitin-mediated turnover of the protein, which is marked for destruction by the E3 ubiquitin ligase SCF(Skp2) complex following its phosphorylation by the cyclin E-cycli...
متن کاملHigh p27 protein levels in chronic lymphocytic leukemia are associated to low Myc and Skp2 expression, confer resistance to apoptosis and antagonize Myc effects on cell cycle
Myc (c-Myc) counteracts p27 effects, and low p27 usually correlates with high Myc expression in human cancer. However there is no information on the co-expression of both genes in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). We found a lack of correlation between RNA and protein levels of p27 and Myc in CLL cells, so we determined the protein levels by immunoblot in 107 cases of CLL. We observed a high ...
متن کاملMyc targets Cks1 to provoke the suppression of p27Kip1, proliferation and lymphomagenesis.
Reduced levels of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27(Kip1) connote poor prognosis in cancer. In human Burkitt lymphoma and in precancerous B cells and lymphomas arising in Emu-Myc transgenic mice, p27(Kip1) expression is markedly reduced. We show that the transcription of the Cks1 component of the SCF(Skp2) complex that is necessary for p27(Kip1) ubiquitylation and degradation is induced...
متن کاملAtm deficiency affects both apoptosis and proliferation to augment Myc-induced lymphomagenesis.
Myc oncoproteins are commonly activated in malignancies and are sufficient to provoke many types of cancer. However, the critical mechanisms by which Myc contributes to malignant transformation are not clear. DNA damage seems to be an important initiating event in tumorigenesis. Here, we show that although Myc does not directly induce double-stranded DNA breaks, it does augment activation of th...
متن کاملMyc-enhanced expression of Cul1 promotes ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis and cell cycle progression.
The c-Myc oncoprotein plays an important role in the growth and proliferation of normal and neoplastic cells. To execute these actions, c-Myc is thought to regulate functionally diverse sets of genes that directly govern cellular mass and progression through critical cell cycle transitions. Here, we provide several lines of evidence that c-Myc promotes ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis by directl...
