An integrative pan-cancer analysis revealing the difference in small ring finger family of SCF E3 ubiquitin ligases.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The SCF (Skp1-cullin-F-box proteins) complex is the largest family of E3 ubiquitin ligases that mediate multiple specific substrate proteins degradation. Two ring-finger family members RBX1/ROC1 and RBX2/RNF7/SAG are small molecular proteins necessary for ubiquitin ligation activity of the multimeric SCF complex. Accumulating evidence indicated the involvement of RBX proteins in the pathogenesis and development of cancers, but no research using pan-cancer analysis for evaluating their difference has been directed previously.

Methods

We investigated RBX1/2 expression patterns and the association with clinicopathological features, and survivals of cancer patients obtained from the TCGA pan-cancer data. The binding energies of RBX1/2-CUL1 complexes were preliminarily
