Oncogenic function of p34SEI-1 via NEDD4‑1‑mediated PTEN ubiquitination/degradation and activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway.

چکیده
A 34-KD protein encoded by the SEI-1 gene (p34(SEI‑1)), is a relatively recently discovered oncoprotein that has multiple important biological functions. Our data show that p34(SEI-1) enhances cancer cell survival and promotes tumorigenesis by downregulating the tumor suppressor PTEN, a negative regulator of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, and therefore activating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. In this process, p34(SEI-1) positively affects NEDD4-1 gene expression both at the transcriptional and protein levels. Furthermore, the expression levels of p34(SEI-1) and NEDD4-1 were found to be coordinated in tumor tissues obtained from patients with breast cancer. We also show that p34(SEI-1) affects the subcellular localization of PTEN.

SCFβ-TRCP-mediated degradation of NEDD4 inhibits tumorigenesis through modulating the PTEN/Akt signaling pathway
The HECT domain-containing ubiquitin E3 ligase NEDD4 is widely expressed in mammalian tissues and plays a crucial role in governing a wide spectrum of cellular processes including cell growth, tissue development and homeostasis. Recent reports have indicated that NEDD4 might facilitate tumorigenesis through targeted degradation of multiple tumor suppressor proteins including PTEN. However, the ...
متن کاملPI3K/AKT activation induces PTEN ubiquitination and destabilization accelerating tumourigenesis
The activity of the phosphatase and tensin homologue (PTEN) is known to be suppressed via post-translational modification. However, the mechanism and physiological significance by which post-translational modifications lead to PTEN suppression remain unclear. Here we demonstrate that PTEN destabilization is induced by EGFR- or oncogenic PI3K mutation-mediated AKT activation in cervical cancer. ...

PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10), a potent tumour suppressor and multifunctional signalling protein, is under intricate regulation. In the present study, we have investigated the mechanism and regulation of PTEN ubiquitination catalysed by NEDD4-1 (neural-precursor-cell-expressed, developmentally down-regulated 4-1), a ubiquitin ligase for PTEN we identified rece...
