RNF6 promotes gastric cancer progression by regulating CCNA1/CREBBP transcription.

ABSTRACT: Ring finger protein 6 (RNF6) is a member of the E3 ubiquitin ligase family. Previous studies have reported the involvement of RNF6 as a ubiquitin ligase in the progression of gastric cancer (GC). However, this study found that RNF6 has a clear localization in the nucleus of GC, indicating a role other than ubiquitin ligase. Further chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) analysis revealed that RNF6 has DNA binding and transcriptional regulatory effects and is involved in important pathways such as tumor cell cycle and apoptosis. Cyclin A1 (CCNA1) and CREB binding protein (CREBBP) are downstream targets for RNF6 transcription regulation in GC. RNF6 binds to the promoter region of CCNA1/CREBBP and is actively regulating their expression in GC cells. Silencing CCNA1/CREBBP partial
