Identification and molecular analysis of RNF31 Q622H germline polymorphism.

ABSTRACT: The linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC), which is composed of RING finger protein 31 (RNF31), RANBP2-type and C3HC4-type zinc finger containing 1 and SHANK-associated RH domain interactor subunits, is the only ubiquitin ligase to generate Met1-linked linear ubiquitin chains. Linear ubiquitin chains regulate canonical NF-κB activation and cell death. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in RNF31, such as Q584H and Q622L, are known to cause the activated B cell-like subtype of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (ABC-DLBCL) because of enhanced LUBAC-mediated NF-κB activation. The present study identified a novel Q622H polymorphism of RNF31 in two patients with lung cancer, one of whom had concurrent ABC-DLBCL. Immunohistochemical analyses revealed that although the expression of RNF31 was e
