Abstract | Ubiquitination is essential for various biological processes, such as signal transduction, intracellular traffick-ing, and protein degradation. Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that ubiquitination plays a crucial role in cancer development. In this report, we examine the expression and function of ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2S (UBE2S) in breast cancer. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that UBE2S is highly expressed in breast cancer. The depletion of UBE2S by siRNA induced disruption of the actin cytoskel-eton and focal adhesions. Interestingly, phosphorylation of FAK at Tyr397, which is important for the transduction of integrin-mediated signaling, was significantly reduced by UBE2S knockdown. We also show that UBE2S knockdown suppressed the malignant characteristics of breast cancer cells, such as migration, invasion, and anchorage-independent growth. Our results indicate that UBE2S could be a potential target for breast cancer treatment. |
