چکیده

RNF2/RING1B is amplified and overexpressed in numerous tumors and contributes to tumorigenicity; however, the biologic importance is poorly understood. Surprisingly, the role of RNF2 in tumorigenesis and invasion can be separated into catalytically independent and catalytically dependent processes.

E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF2 interacts with the S6' proteasomal ATPase subunit and increases the ATP hydrolysis activity of S6'.

We reported previously that the human RNF2 (RING finger protein 2) protein is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that interacts with the human ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme Hip-2/hE2-25K. In the present study, we show that RNF2 interacts with S6' ATPase, a subunit of the proteasomal 19 S regulatory complex. S6' interacts with RNF2 through its N-terminal RING domain, and RNF2 interacts with S6' through its C...

RNF2/Ring1b negatively regulates p53 expression in selective cancer cell types to promote tumor development.

Large numbers of studies have focused on the posttranslational regulation of p53 activity. One of the best-known negative regulators for p53 is MDM2, an E3 ubiquitin ligase that promotes p53 degradation through proteasome degradation pathways. Additional E3 ligases have also been reported to negatively regulate p53. However, whether these E3 ligases have distinct/overlapping roles in the regula...

Modulation of hippocampal synapse maturation by activity-regulated E3 ligase via non-canonical pathway

Development of functional synapses is crucial for the transmission and storage of information in the brain. Post establishment of the initial synaptic contact, synapses are stabilized through neuronal activity-induced signals. Emerging studies have implicated ubiquitination; a reversible posttranslational modification, as a key regulatory switch that modulates synapse development through protea...

Dual Roles of RNF2 in Melanoma Progression.

UNLABELLED Epigenetic regulators have emerged as critical factors governing the biology of cancer. Here, in the context of melanoma, we show that RNF2 is prognostic, exhibiting progression-correlated expression in human melanocytic neoplasms. Through a series of complementary gain-of-function and loss-of-function studies in mouse and human systems, we establish that RNF2 is oncogenic and promet...

Down-regulation of salt-inducible kinase 1 (SIK1) is mediated by RNF2 in hepatocarcinogenesis

Our previous study reported that down-regulation of SIK1 accelerates the growth and invasion of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the underlying mechanism leading to SIK1 down-regulation in HCC largely remains to be determined. Herein, we demonstrated that RNF2 expression is negatively correlated with SIK1 levels in HCC tissues. Kaplan-Meier analysis of tumor samples revealed that high R...
