The differentially expressed gene signatures of the Cullin 3-RING ubiquitin ligases in neuroendocrine cancer.

ABSTRACT: Cullin-RING ubiquitin E3 ligase (CRLs) composed of four components including cullin scaffolds, adaptors, substrate receptors, and RING proteins mediates the ubiquitination of approximately 20% of cellular proteins that are involved in numerous biological processes. While CRLs deregulation contributes to the pathogenesis of many diseases, including cancer, how CRLs deregulation occurs is yet to be fully investigated. Here, we demonstrate that components of CRL3 and its transcriptional regulators are possible prognosis marker of neuroendocrine (NE) cancer. Analysis of Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE) through the CellMinerCDB portal revealed that expression of CRL3 scaffold Cullin 3 (CUL3) highly correlates with NE signature, and CUL3 silencing inhibited NE cancer proliferation. Moreover,
