The E3 Ligase RING1 Targets p53 for Degradation and Promotes Cancer Cell Proliferation and Survival
29 Nov 2017
Abstract excerpt
Abstract As a component of the transcriptional repression complex 1 (PRC1), the ring finger protein RING1 participates in the epigenetic regulation in cancer. However, the contributions of RING1 to cancer etiology or development are unknown. In this study, we report that RING1 is a critical negative regulator of p53 homeostasis in human hepatocellular and colorectal carcinomas. RING1 acts as an E3 ubiquitin (Ub)...
