SCYL1 binding protein 1 promotes the ubiquitin-dependent degradation of Pirh2 and has tumor-suppressive function in the development of hepatocellular carcinoma
7 May 2012
Abstract excerpt
Pirh2 is a Ring-H2 domain containing E3 ubiquitin ligase that targets several important tumor suppressor genes for proteasomal degradation. Overexpression of Pirh2 is frequently detected in many clinical tumor tissues including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the molecular mechanism of Pirh2 activation in tumorigenesis still remains poorly understood. In this study, we find a Pirh2-binding protein, SCYL1...
