Abstract
RNF31 is a multifunctional RING finger protein implicated in various inflammatory diseases and cancers. It functions as a core component of the linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC), which activates the nuclear factor kappaB (NF-κB) pathway via the generation of the Met1-linked linear ubiquitin chain. We aimed to clarify the role of RNF31 in the pathogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and its relevance as a therapeutic target. High RNF31 expression in HCC, assessed by both immunohistochemistry and mRNA levels, was related to worse survival rates among patients with HCC. In vitro experiments showed that RNF31 knockdown in HCC cell lines led to decreased cell proliferation and invasion, as well as suppression of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α-induced NF-κB activation. Treatment with HOIPIN-8, a specific LUBAC inhibitor that suppresses RNF31 ubiquitin ligase (E3) activity, showed similar effects, resulting in decreased cell proliferation and invasion. Our clinical and in vitro data showed that RNF31 is a prognostic factor for HCC that promotes tumor aggressiveness via NF-κB activation.

Abstract
E3 ubiquitin protein ligase RNF31 is present in human proteins and is involved in linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC) activity and cell growth. RNF31 is involved in ubiquitination, which is the post-translational modification of proteins. Ubiquitin molecules connect with amino acid residues of target proteins under the action of ubiquitin-activating enzyme E1, ubiquitin binding enzyme E2 and ubiquitin ligase E3, so as to achieve certain physiological functions. The abnormal expression of ubiquitination promotes the formation of cancer. In studies of breast cancer, RNF31 mRNA levels were found to be higher in cancer cells than in other tissues. The PUB domain of RNF31 is the binding site of the ubiquitin thioesterase otulin. Here, we report the backbone and side-chain resonance assignments of the PUB domain of RNF31 and study the backbone relaxation of the domain. These studies will contribute to further understanding of the structural and functional relationship of RNF31 protein, which may also be a target for drug research.

Abstract
Linear ubiquitination is a distinct type of ubiquitination that involves attaching a head-to-tail polyubiquitin chain to a substrate protein. Early studies found that linear ubiquitin chains are essential for the TNFα- and IL-1-mediated NF-κB signaling pathways. However, recent studies have discovered at least sixteen linear ubiquitination substrates, which exhibit a broader activity than expected and mediate many other signaling pathways beyond NF-κB signaling. Dysregulation of linear ubiquitination in these pathways has been linked to many types of cancers, such as lymphoma, liver cancer, and breast cancer. Since the discovery of linear ubiquitin, extensive effort has been made to delineate the molecular mechanisms of how dysregulation of linear ubiquitination causes tumorigenesis and cancer development. In this review, we highlight newly discovered linear ubiquitination-mediated signaling pathways, recent advances in the role of linear ubiquitin in different types of cancers, and the development of linear ubiquitin inhibitors.

Abstract
Background: Accumulating evidence suggests that postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) is a common chronic systemic metabolic bone disease, but its specific molecular pathogenesis remains unclear. This study aimed to identify novel genetic diagnostic markers for PMOP. Methods: In this paper, we combined three GEO datasets to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and performed functional enrichment analysis of PMOP-related differential genes. Key genes were analyzed using two machine learning algorithms, namely, LASSO and the Gaussian mixture model, and candidate biomarkers were found after taking the intersection. After further ceRNA network construction, methylation analysis, and immune infiltration analysis, ACACB and WWP1 were finally selected as diagnostic markers. Twenty-four clinical samples were collected, and the expression levels of biomarkers in PMOP were detected by qPCR. Results: We identified 34 differential genes in PMOP. DEG enrichment was mainly related to amino acid synthesis, inflammatory response, and apoptosis. The ceRNA network construction found that XIST-hsa-miR-15a-5p/hsa-miR-15b-5p/hsa-miR-497-5p and hsa-miR-195-5p-WWP1/ACACB may be RNA regulatory pathways regulating PMOP disease progression. ACACB and WWP1 were identified as diagnostic genes for PMOP, and validated in datasets and clinical sample experiments. In addition, these two genes were also significantly associated with immune cells, such as T, B, and NK cells. Conclusion: Overall, we identified two vital diagnostic genes responsible for PMOP. The results may help provide potential immunotherapeutic targets for PMOP.

RBCK1 regulates the progression of ER-positive breast cancer through the HIF1α signaling. Cell Death Dis 2022; 13:1023.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women on a global scale. It can generally be divided into four main categories, of which estrogen receptor ER-positive breast cancer accounts for most breast cancer cases. RBCK1 protein is an E3 ubiquitin ligase containing the UBL, NZF, and RBR domains. It is well known to exhibit abnormal expression in breast tumors, making it a valuable diagnostic marker and drug target. Additionally, studies have confirmed that in breast cancer, about 25 to 40% of tumors appear as visible hypoxic regions, while in hypoxia, tumor cells can activate the hypoxia-inducing factor HIF1 pathway and widely activate the expression of downstream genes. Previous studies have confirmed that in the hypoxic environment of tumors, HIF1α promotes the remodeling of extracellular matrix, induces the recruitment of tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) and immunosuppression of allogeneic tumors, thereby influencing tumor recurrence and metastasis. This research aims to identify RBCK1 as an important regulator of HIF1α signaling pathway. Targeted therapy with RBCK1 could be a promising treatment strategy for ER-positive breast cancer.

Abstract
AbstractRNF31 (HOIP), RBCK1 (HOIL-1L), and SHARPIN are subunits of the linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex. Their function and specific molecular mechanisms in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have not been reported previously. Here, we investigated the role of RNF31 and RBCK1 in HCC. We showed that RNF31 and RBCK1 were overexpressed in HCC and that upregulation of RNF31 and RBCK1 indicated poor clinical outcomes in patients with HCC. RNF31 overexpression was significantly associated with more satellite foci and vascular invasion in patients with HCC. Additionally, RBCK1 expression correlated positively with RNF31 expression in HCC tissues. Functionally, RBCK1 and RNF31 promote the metastasis and growth of HCC cells. Moreover, the RNF31 inhibitor gliotoxin inhibited the malignant behavior of HCC cells. Mechanistically, RBCK1 interacted with RNF31 and repressed its ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. In summary, the present study revealed an oncogenic role and regulatory relationship between RBCK1 and RNF31 in facilitating proliferation and metastasis in HCC, suggesting that they are potential prognostic markers and therapeutic targets for HCC.

Abstract
AbstractBreast cancer is the most prevalent malignant tumor and a leading cause of mortality among females worldwide. The tumorigenesis and progression of breast cancer involve complex pathophysiological processes, which may be mediated by post-translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins, stimulated by various genes and signaling pathways. Studies into PTMs have long been dominated by the investigation of protein phosphorylation and histone epigenetic modifications. However, with great advances in proteomic techniques, several other PTMs, such as acetylation, glycosylation, sumoylation, methylation, ubiquitination, citrullination, and palmitoylation have been confirmed in breast cancer. Nevertheless, the mechanisms, effects, and inhibitors of these unconventional PTMs (particularly, the non-histone modifications other than phosphorylation) received comparatively little attention. Therefore, in this review, we illustrate the functions of these PTMs and highlight their impact on the oncogenesis and progression of breast cancer. Identification of novel potential therapeutic drugs targeting PTMs and development of biological markers for the detection of breast cancer would be significantly valuable for the efficient selection of therapeutic regimens and prediction of disease prognosis in patients with breast cancer.

Abstract
PTEN is frequently mutated in human cancers, which leads to the excessive activation of PI3K/AKT signaling and thus promotes tumorigenesis and drug resistance. Met1-linked ubiquitination (M1-Ubi) is also involved in cancer progression, but the mechanism is poorly defined. Here we find that HOIP, one important component of linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC), promotes prostate cancer (PCa) progression by enhancing AKT signaling in a PTEN-dependent manner. Mechanistically, PTEN is modified by M1-Ubi at two sites K144 and K197, which significantly inhibits PTEN phosphatase activity and thus accelerates PCa progression. More importantly, we identify that the high-frequency mutants PTENR173H and PTENR173C in PCa patients showed the enhanced level of M1-Ubi, which impairs PTEN function in inhibition of AKT phosphorylation and cell growth. We also find that HOIP depletion sensitizes PCa cells to therapeutic agents BKM120 and Enzalutamide. Furthermore, the clinical data analyses confirm that HOIP is upregulated and positively correlated with AKT activation in PCa patient specimen, which may promote PCa progression and increase the risk of PCa biochemical relapse. Together, our study reveals a key role of PTEN M1-Ubi in regulation of AKT activation and PCa progression, which may propose a new strategy for PCa therapy.

Abstract
Background Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most common subtype of non‐small cell lung cancer and has a poor prognosis. RBR E3 ubiquitin ligases are a special class of E3 ubiquitin ligases which contain three zinc‐bing domains that catalyze ubiquitin to substrate proteins. The RBR family of E3 ubiquitin ligases has been reported in various human malignancies, but the roles of RBR E3 ubiquitin ligases in LUAD remain unclear. Methods By using TCGA and Kaplan–Meier plotter databases, we examined the expression and prognostic value of RBR E3 ubiquitin ligases. cBioPortal was used to analyze genetic mutations. The STRING database was used to build a protein interactive network. GO, KEGG, and GSEA were performed to investigate the potential biological functions of RBR E3 ubiquitin ligases. Results The expression of ARIH2, RNF144B, RNF216, and RNF217 was significantly related to the clinicopathological parameters and prognosis in LUAD patients. GSEA enrichment result showed ARIH2, RNF144B, RNF216, and RNF217 were all associated with NADH dehydrogenase complex assembly. GO functional enrichment analysis revealed that four RBR E3 ubiquitin ligases and their interactors were most correlated with ubiquitin‐protein transferase activity. KEGG pathway analysis indicated they were associated with cytosolic DNA‐sensing pathway, RIG‐I‐like receptor signaling pathway and NF‐kappa B signaling pathway. Conclusions Our comprehensive bioinformatic analysis revealed that ARIH2, RNF144B, RNF216, and RNF217 may be new prognostic biomarkers and these findings will help to better understand the distinct roles of RBR E3 ubiquitin ligases in LUAD.

Abstract
Breast cancer is an individually unique, multi-faceted and chameleonic disease, an eternal challenge for the new era of high-integrated precision diagnostic and personalized oncomedicine. Besides traditional single-omics fields (such as genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics and metabolomics) and multi-omics contributions (proteogenomics, proteotranscriptomics or reproductomics), several new "-omics" approaches and exciting proteomics subfields are contributing to basic and advanced understanding of these "multiple diseases termed breast cancer": phenomics/cellomics, connectomics and interactomics, secretomics, matrisomics, exosomics, angiomics, chaperomics and epichaperomics, phosphoproteomics, ubiquitinomics, metalloproteomics, terminomics, degradomics and metadegradomics, adhesomics, stressomics, microbiomics, immunomics, salivaomics, materiomics and other biomics. Throughout the extremely complex neoplastic process, a Breast Cancer Cell Continuum Concept (BCCCC) has been modeled in this review as a spatio-temporal and holistic approach, as long as the breast cancer represents a complex cascade comprising successively integrated populations of heterogeneous tumor and cancer-associated cells, that reflect the carcinoma's progression from a "driving mutation" and formation of the breast primary tumor, toward the distant secondary tumors in different tissues and organs, via circulating tumor cell populations. This BCCCC is widely sustained by a Breast Cancer Proteomic Continuum Concept (BCPCC), where each phenotype of neoplastic and tumor-associated cells is characterized by a changing and adaptive proteomic profile detected in solid and liquid minimal invasive biopsies by complex proteomics approaches. Such a profile is created, beginning with the proteomic landscape of different neoplastic cell populations and cancer-associated cells, followed by subsequent analysis of protein biomarkers involved in epithelial-mesenchymal transition and intravasation, circulating tumor cell proteomics, and, finally, by protein biomarkers that highlight the extravasation and distant metastatic invasion. Proteomics technologies are producing important data in breast cancer diagnostic, prognostic, and predictive biomarkers discovery and validation, are detecting genetic aberrations at the proteome level, describing functional and regulatory pathways and emphasizing specific protein and peptide profiles in human tissues, biological fluids, cell lines and animal models. Also, proteomics can identify different breast cancer subtypes and specific protein and proteoform expression, can assess the efficacy of cancer therapies at cellular and tissular level and can even identify new therapeutic target proteins in clinical studies.

Abstract
Estrogen receptor-negative (ER-negative) breast cancer is thought to be more malignant and devastating than ER-positive breast cancer. ER-negative breast cancer exhibits elevated NF-κB activity, but how this abnormally high NF-κB activity is maintained is poorly understood. The importance of linear ubiquitination, which is generated by the linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC), is increasingly appreciated in NF-κB signaling, which regulates cell activation and death. Here, we showed that epsin proteins, a family of ubiquitin-binding endocytic adaptors, interacted with LUBAC via its ubiquitin-interacting motif and bound LUBAC's bona fide substrate NEMO via its N-terminal homolog (ENTH) domain. Furthermore, epsins promoted NF-κB essential modulator (NEMO) linear ubiquitination and served as scaffolds for recruiting other components of the IκB kinase (IKK) complex, resulting in the heightened IKK activation and sustained NF-κB signaling essential for the development of ER-negative breast cancer. Heightened epsin levels in ER-negative human breast cancer are associated with poor relapse-free survival. We showed that transgenic and pharmacological approaches eliminating epsins potently impeded breast cancer development in both spontaneous and patient-derived xenograft breast cancer mouse models. Our findings established the pivotal role epsins played in promoting breast cancer. Thus, targeting epsins may represent a strategy to restrain NF-κB signaling and provide an important perspective into ER-negative breast cancer treatment.

Abstract
SHANK- associated RH domain-interacting protein (SHARPIN) is a multifunctional protein associated with numerous physiological functions and many diseases. The primary role of the protein as a LUBAC-dependent component in regulating the activation of the transcription factor NF-κB accounts to its role in inflammation and antiapoptosis. Hence, an alteration of SHARPIN expression or genetic mutations or polymorphisms leads to the alteration of the above-mentioned primary physiological functions contributing to inflammation-associated diseases and cancer, respectively. However, there are complications of targeting SHARPIN as a therapeutic approach, which arises from the wide-range of LUBAC-independent functions and yet unknown roles of SHARPIN including neuronal functions. The identification of SHARPIN as a postsynaptic protein and the emerging studies indicating its role in several neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer's disease suggests a strong role of SHARPIN in neuronal functioning. This review summarizes the functional roles of SHARPIN in normal physiology and disease pathogenesis and strongly suggests a need for concentrating more studies on identifying the unknown neuronal functions of SHARPIN and hence its role in neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
RING-in-between-RING (RBR) E3 ligases are one class of E3 ligases that is characterized by the unique RING-HECT hybrid mechanism to function with E2s to transfer ubiquitin to target proteins for degradation. Emerging evidence has demonstrated that RBR E3 ligases play essential roles in neurodegenerative diseases, infection, inflammation and cancer. Accumulated evidence has revealed that RBR E3 ligases exert their biological functions in various types of cancers by modulating the degradation of tumor promoters or suppressors. Hence, we summarize the differential functions of RBR E3 ligases in a variety of human cancers. In general, ARIH1, RNF14, RNF31, RNF144B, RNF216, and RBCK1 exhibit primarily oncogenic roles, whereas ARIH2, PARC and PARK2 mainly have tumor suppressive functions. Moreover, the underlying mechanisms by which different RBR E3 ligases are involved in tumorigenesis and progression are also described. We discuss the further investigation is required to comprehensively understand the critical role of RBR E3 ligases in carcinogenesis. We hope our review can stimulate the researchers to deeper explore the mechanism of RBR E3 ligases-mediated carcinogenesis and to develop useful inhibitors of these oncogenic E3 ligases for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) accounts for approximately 3% of adult malignancies, and the incidence of RCC continues to rise worldwide. Although RCC can be treated with surgery at an early stages, the five-year survival rates have been observed to decline dramatically in patients with advanced disease. Most patients with RCC treated with cytotoxic or targeted drugs will develop resistance at some point during therapy. Thus, it is necessary to identify novel therapeutic targets for RCC. Here, we found that RANBP2-type and C3HC4-type zinc finger-containing 1 (RBCK1) expression was upregulated in human RCC samples. Analysis of multiple public databases revealed the correlation between RBCK1 expression and poor prognosis in RCC patients. Subsequently, we performed RBCK1 depletion experiments in RCC cells that severely affected the in vivo and in vitro proliferation of renal cancer cells. The effects of RBCK1 on cell proliferation could be rescued with p53 expression knockdown in two cell lines expressing wild-type p53. Further experiments demonstrated that RBCK1 could facilitate p53 poly-ubiquitination and degradation by direct interaction with p53. Together, our results show that RBCK1 may serve as a promising target for RCC therapy by restoring p53 functions.

Abstract
Programmed cell death is critical to the physiological function of multi-cellular organisms, controlling development, immunity, inflammation, and cancer progression. Death receptor (DR)-mediated regulation of a protease functions as a second messenger to initiate a death signal cascade to induce apoptosis or necroptosis. Recently, it has become clear that post-translational modifications (PTMs) of signaling components in the DR complex are highly complex, temporally controlled, and tightly regulated, and play an important role in cell death signaling. This review focuses on the molecular mechanisms and pathophysiological consequences of PTMs on the formation of the DR signaling complex, especially with respect to tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1). Furthermore, characterization of the role of PTMs in spatially different TNFR1 complexes (complexes I and II), especially with respect to the role of ubiquitination and phosphorylation of receptor interacting protein 1 (RIP1) in programmed cell death in cancer cells, will be reviewed. By integrating recently gained insight of the functional importance of PTMs in complex I or II, this review discusses how the concerted action of PTMs results in life or death upon DR ligation. Finally, the emerging concept of a sequential cell death checkpoint by the PTMs of RIP1, which may reveal novel therapeutic opportunities for the treatment of some cancers, will be discussed.

Abstract
Tuberculosis, caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, remains a global public health threat. The success of M. tuberculosis largely contributes to its manipulation of host cell fate. The role of M. tuberculosis PE/PPE family effectors in the host destiny was intensively explored. In this study, the role of PPE60 (Rv3478) was characterized by using Rv3478 recombinant M. smegmatis. PPE60 can promote host cell pyroptosis via caspases/NLRP3/gasdermin. The production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-1β, IL-6, IL-12p40 and TNF-α was altered by PPE60. We found that LUBAC was involved in PPE60-elicited NF-κB signaling by using Linear Ubiquitin Chain Assembly Complex (LUBAC)-specific inhibitor gliotoxin. The PPE60 recombinant M. smegmatis survival rate within macrophages is increased, as well as elevated resistance to stresses such as low pH, surface stresses and antibiotics exposure. For a first time it is firstly reported that M. tuberculosis effector PPE60 can modulate the host cell fate via LUBAC-mediated NF-κB signaling.
