The p50 subunit of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) is generated from processing of the p105 precursor. We identified KIP1 ubiquitination-promoting complex 1 (KPC1) as the ubiquitin (Ub) ligase mediating this process. Overexpression of KPC1 results in tumor suppression, probably due to the generation of p50-p50 homodimers. It appears that high levels of KPC1 and nuclear p50 are important for maintaining the non-malignant state.
核因子-κB(NF-κB)的p50亚基由p105前体加工产生。我们鉴定出KIP1泛素化促进复合物1(KPC1)为介导此过程的泛素(Ub)连接酶。KPC1的过表达导致肿瘤抑制,可能是由于p50-p50同型二聚体的产生。似乎高水平的KPC1和核p50对维持非恶性状态很重要。
