Disease relevance of TCEB1

 

High impact information on TCEB1

  • Whereas Elongin C assembles with Elongin A to form an AC complex with increased specific activity, Elongin B, a member of the ubiquitin-homology gene family, appears to serve a chaperone-like function, facilitating assembly and enhancing stability of the Elongin (SIII) complex [4].
  • Vif binding to EloC is negatively regulated by serine phosphorylation in the BC-box motif of the SOCS-box [5].
  • RACK1 binds to Elongin-C and promotes ubiquitination of HIF-1alpha [6].
  • Elongin-C-binding sites in RACK1 and VHL show significant sequence similarity [6].
  • These mutations preferentially involve residues that directly bind to elongin C and/or alter the conformation of pVHL such that binding to elongin C is at least partially diminished [7].
 

Physical interactions of TCEB1

  • In this report, we identify Elongin C mutants that fall into multiple functional classes based on their abilities to bind Elongin B and to bind and activate Elongin A under our assay conditions [8].
 

Other interactions of TCEB1

 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of TCEB1

  • These occur in the pVHL regions that bind hypoxia-inducible factor alpha (HIF-alpha ) or Elongin C. Microarray analysis showed that the clones bearing a mutation in the elongin-binding region (mutant 167) were unique, as many more genes were suppressed than up-regulated [13].
