    Snippet: Furthermore, ISGylation of Np63 abrogates its ability to induce cell growth and tumor formation (Jeon et al., 2012) . Knockdown of ISG15, Lys-to-Arg mutations of ISGylation sites, or Asp-to-Ala mutations of cleavage sites by caspase-2 strongly potentiate the ability of Np63 to promote anchorage-independent cell growth and tumor development in vivo. These findings indicate that ISG15 and its conjugation to Np63 play critical role.....
    Document: Furthermore, ISGylation of Np63 abrogates its ability to induce cell growth and tumor formation (Jeon et al., 2012) . Knockdown of ISG15, Lys-to-Arg mutations of ISGylation sites, or Asp-to-Ala mutations of cleavage sites by caspase-2 strongly potentiate the ability of Np63 to promote anchorage-independent cell growth and tumor development in vivo. These findings indicate that ISG15 and its conjugation to Np63 play critical roles in suppression of tumorigenesis particularly in epithelial cancer cells under genotoxic stress conditions. As both camptothecin and doxorubicin are well-known anticancer drugs, these findings also provide a molecular basis for chemotherapeutic drugs against Np63mediated cancers.
