Increased Cul1 expression promotes melanoma cell proliferation through regulating p27 expression

Abstract excerpt

Cullin1 (Cul1) serves as a rigid scaffold in SCF (Skp1/Cullin/Rbx1/F-box protein) complex, the largest family of ubiquitin-protein E3 ligases, and aberrant expression of Cul1 is involved in dysfunction of SCF E3 ligases. Previously, we found that Cul1 expression is increased in early stages of melanoma. In the present study, we further investigated the role of Cul1 in melanoma development. Our results showed that...
