Deubiquitylase OTUD6B stabilizes the mutated pVHL and suppresses cell migration in clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) is an important tumor suppressor, and its inactivation is a hallmark of inherited VHL disease and most sporadic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). VHL protein (pVHL) with missense point mutations are unstable and degraded by the proteasome because of the disruption of elongin binding. Deubiquitylase ovarian tumor domain-containing 6B (OTUD6B) had been documented to couple pVHL and elongin B to form stable VHL - elonginB - elonginC complex, which protects pVHL from degradation. However, whether OTUD6B governs the stability of pVHL wild type and the missense mutants in ccRCC remains largely elusive. Here, we reported that low OTUD6B level predicted poorer survival in ccRCC patients with VHL missense mutation, but not frameshift deletion and nonsense mutation. OT
