Anti-proteolytic regulation of KRAS by USP9X/NDRG3 in KRAS-driven cancer development by Han Koo, Kyung Chan Park, Hyun Ahm Sohn, Minho Kang, Dong Joon Kim, Zee-Yong Park, Sehoon Park, Sang Hyun Min, Seong-Hwan Park, Yeon-Mi You, Yohan Han, Bo-Kyung Kim, Chul-Ho Lee, Yeon-Soo Kim, Sang J. Chung, Young Il Yeom, Dong Chul Lee

“…Mechanistically, KRAS protein binds to the C-terminal serine/threonine-rich region of NDRG3, subsequently going through deubiquitination by USP9X recruited to the complex. This interaction can be disrupted in a dominant-negative manner by a C-terminal NDRG3 fragment that binds KRAS but is defective in USP9X binding, highly suppressing KRAS protein expression and KRAS-driven cell growth. …”
