is the most frequently mutated gene in human cancers. Most genomic alterations are missense mutations, which cause a loss of its tumour suppressor functions while providing mutant p53 (mut_p53) with oncogenic features (gain-of-function). Loss of p53 tumour suppressor functions alters the transcription of both protein-coding and non-protein-coding genes. Gain-of-function of mut_p53 triggers modification in gene expression as well; however, the impact of mut_p53 on the transcription of the non-protein-coding genes and whether these non-protein-coding genes affect oncogenic properties of cancer cell lines are not fully explored. In this study, we suggested that (also known as ) is a long non-coding RNA regulated by mut_p53 and proved that mut_p53 directly regulates by binding to an enhancer region downstream of the locus. We also showed that the loss or downregulation of impairs cell migration in a breast cancer cell line. Eventually, by performing a combined analysis of RNA-seq data generated in -silenced and knockout cells, we showed that and mut_p53 share common gene pathways. Overall, our findings underline the importance of ncRNAs in the mut_p53 network in breast and ovarian cancer cell lines and in particular the importance of in mut_p53 pro-migratory pathways.
是人类癌症中突变最频繁的基因。大多数基因组改变是错义突变,导致其肿瘤抑制功能丧失,同时赋予突变型 p53(mut_p53)致癌特征(功能获得)。p53 肿瘤抑制功能的丧失会改变蛋白质编码和非蛋白质编码基因的转录。mut_p53 的功能获得也会触发基因表达的修饰;然而,mut_p53 对非蛋白质编码基因的转录的影响以及这些非蛋白质编码基因是否影响癌细胞系的致癌特性尚未得到充分探索。在这项研究中,我们提出 (也称为 )是受 mut_p53 调控的长非编码 RNA,并证明 mut_p53 通过结合 基因座下游的增强子区域直接调控 。我们还表明, 缺失或下调会损害乳腺癌细胞系的细胞迁移。最终,通过对沉默 和 敲除细胞中生成的 RNA-seq 数据进行联合分析,我们表明 和 mut_p53 共享共同的基因途径。总的来说,我们的研究结果强调了 ncRNAs 在乳腺癌和卵巢癌细胞系中 mut_p53 网络中的重要性,特别是 在 mut_p53 促迁移途径中的重要性。
