Disease relevance of DLC1

 

High impact information on DLC1

  • Circannual control of hibernation by HP complex in the brain [6].
  • We report that cten binds to another tumor suppressor, deleted in liver cancer 1 (DLC-1), and the SH2 domain of cten is responsible for the interaction [7].
  • Unexpectedly, the interaction between DLC-1 and the cten SH2 domain is independent of tyrosine phosphorylation of DLC-1 [7].
  • These results provide a novel mechanism whereby the SH2 domain of cten-mediated focal adhesion localization of DLC-1 plays an essential role in its tumor suppression activity [7].
  • Furthermore, Dlc-1 and I kappaB alpha were found to associate with the microtubule organizing center, a perinuclear region from which microtubules radiate [8].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of DLC1

 

Biological context of DLC1

  • The delineation of the gene structure allows mutation analysis of DLC1 in other tumour types for which it remains a candidate tumour suppressor gene based on its location and homology to rhoGAP [1].
  • The rarity of exonic missense mutations, and the absence of protein-truncating mutations, indicates that DLC1 is not the target of 8p LOH in colorectal or ovarian tumours [1].
  • We have delineated the structure of the DLC1 gene and used single-stranded conformation polymorphism analysis (SSCP) to look for sequence variants in 126 colorectal and 33 ovarian primary tumours and cell lines [1].
  • Seven informative SNPs that spanned the complete DLC1 gene were genotyped in an additional 249 sporadic cases and 222 unaffected controls [2].
  • The 14-kDa dynein light chain-family protein Dlc1 is required for regular oscillatory nuclear movement and efficient recombination during meiotic prophase in fission yeast [12].
 

Anatomical context of DLC1

 

Associations of DLC1 with chemical compounds

  • We identified KIBRA, a WW domain- and a glutamic acid stretch-containing protein, as a DLC1-binding protein and showed that it interacts with DLC1 both in vitro and in vivo [14].
  • Transcriptional silencing of DLC-1 was primarily associated with aberrant DNA methylation, rather than genomic deletion as 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine induced reactivation of DLC-1 expression in 82% (9/11) NSCLC cell lines showing downregulated DLC-1 [15].
  • Pak1 phosphorylation of DLC1 on Ser-88 controls vesicle formation and trafficking functions, as Ser-88 substitution for alanine prevents macropinocytosis [16].
  • Recent studies have identified dynein light chain-1 (DLC1), a component of the dynein motor, as a p21-activated kinase 1 (Pak1)-interacting substrate with binding sites mapped to amino acids 61-89 of DLC1 and phosphorylation site at serine 88 [16].
  • Pak1 associates with the complex of DLC1 and BimL, a proapoptotic BH3-only protein, and phosphorylates both proteins [17].
  • We further show that treatment of cells with phorbol ester or coexpression of 14-3-3 proteins, blocks DLC1 nucleocytoplasmic shuttling, probably by masking a previously unrecognized nuclear localization sequence [18].
