Cullin 4-DCAF Proteins in Tumorigenesis

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Cullin-RING Ligases and Protein Neddylation

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 1217))

Abstract

Cullin-RING ligase 4 (CRL4), a member of the cullin-RING ligase family, orchestrates a variety of critical cellular processes and pathophysiological events. Recent results from mouse genetics, clinical analyses, and biochemical studies have revealed the impact of CRL4 in development and cancer etiology and elucidated its in-depth mechanism on catalysis of ubiquitination as a ubiquitin E3 ligase. Here, we summarize the versatile roles of the CRL4 E3 ligase complexes in tumorigenesis dependent on the evidence obtained from knockout and transgenic mouse models as well as biochemical and pathological studies.
