Lin-28同源蛋白B (Lin-28B)
Q6ZN17功能描述
microRNA (miRNA) 生物发生的抑制因子,包括 let-7 以及可能的 miR107、miR-143 和 miR-200c。结合初级 let-7 转录本 (pri-let-7),包括 pri-let-7g 和 pri-let-7a-1,并将其隔离在核仁中,使其远离微处理器复合物,从而阻止其加工为成熟 miRNA (PubMed:22118463)。对 pri-miR21 无作用 (PubMed:22118463)。抑制 let-7 表达是正常发育所必需的,并通过阻止 let-7 介导的分化来维持胚胎干细胞的多能状态。当过表达时,招募 ZCCHC11/TUT4 尿苷酸转移酶至 pre-let-7 转录本,导致其末端尿苷化和降解 (PubMed:19703396)。该活性可能在体内不相关,因为 LIN28B 介导的 let-7 miRNA 成熟抑制似乎不依赖 ZCCHC11 (PubMed:22118463)。与靶 pre-miRNA 的相互作用通过 pre-miRNA 末端环中的 5'-GGAG-3' 基序发生。介导 MYC 诱导的 let-7 抑制 (By similarity)。当过表达时,isoform 1 促进乳腺腺癌细胞系 MCF-7 的生长。Isoform 2 对细胞生长无影响。 {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q45KJ6, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16971064, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18951094, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19703396, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22118463}。
组织特异性
Expressed at high levels in the placenta and, at mucher lower, in testis and fetal liver (PubMed:16971064). Isoform 1 is only detected in placenta and in moderately and poorly differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma cells (at protein level). Isoform 2 is detected in fetal liver, non-tumor liver tissues, as well as well-differentiated tumor tissues (at protein level). Tends to be up-regulated in triple-negative (ER-,PR-,HER2-) breast tumors, as well as in liver, ovarian, and thyroid carcinomas (PubMed:22118463).
