Abstract excerpt
The ubiquitin ligase constitutively photomorphogenic 1 (COP1) is involved in many biological responses in mammalian cells, but its role in tumorigenesis remains unclear. Here we show that COP1 is a ubiquitin ligase for the tumor suppressor CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein (C/EBPα) and promotes its degradation in vivo, thereby blocking myeloid differentiation of hematopoietic cells for tumorigenesis. In this...
