Pan-cancer analysis of FBXW family with potential implications in prognosis and immune infiltration.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The F-box and WD repeat domain containing (FBXW) family of SCF E3 complexes has 10 members that are responsible for ubiquitination and degradation of substrate proteins involved in cell cycle regulation and tumorigenesis. Among them, FBXW1 (also called b-TrCP1/BTRC) and FBXW7 are the central proteins in this category. However, there is still a lack of elaborate exploration of the contribution of FBXW family members, especially FBXW1 and FBXW7, in various tumor types.

Methods

In this present study, we preliminarily analyzed the genetic structure characteristics of the FBXW family, and systematically investigated their expression patterns and clinical correlations based on the TCGA pan-cancer data. Survival analysis of FBXWs was also conducted through the Kaplan-Mei
