Siah Proteins: Novel Drug Targets in the Ras and Hypoxia Pathways

Abstract excerpt

The Siah (seven in absentia homolog) family of RING-domain proteins are components of ubiquitin ligase complexes, targeting proteins for proteasomal degradation. Siah family members have been reported to function in Ras, estrogen, DNA-damage, and hypoxia response pathways. Although earlier reports implicated Siah proteins as tumor suppressors, recent studies in mouse models have shown that Siah inhibition impairs...
