USP15, activated by TFAP4 transcriptionally, stabilizes SHC1 via deubiquitination and deteriorates renal cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Ubiquitin-specific peptidase 15 (USP15), a critical deubiquitinating enzyme, has been demonstrated to improve substrate stabilization by hydrolyzing the bond between the substrate and ubiquitin, and is implicated in multiple carcinogenic processes. Prompted by the information cited from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and the Cancer Proteogenomic Data Analysis Site (cProSite), USP15 is selectively overexpressed in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) samples. We aimed to investigate the function of USP15 on ccRCC malignant features, which was emphasized in its deubiquitination of SHC adaptor protein 1 (SHC1). The overexpression of USP15 promoted the capacity of proliferation, migration, and invasion in ccRCC CAKI1 and 769-P cells, and these malignant biological properties were d
