Abstract excerpt
SPOP, speckle-type POZ protein is a substrate adaptor protein of the Cullin-3/RING ubiquitin E3 complex. The spop gene is the most commonly point mutated in human primary prostate cancers, but the pathological contribution of the SPOP mutations remains unclear. In this study, we investigated several known factors that are critical in the DNA--protein cross-link repair process. The depletion of SPOP or...
