IDENTIFICATION OF SUMOYLATION SITES IN CCDC6, THE FIRST IDENTIFIED RET PARTNER GENE IN PAPILLARY THYROID CARCINOMA, UNCOVERS A MODE OF REGULATING CCDC6 FUNCTION ON CREB1 TRANSCRIPTIONAL ACTIVITY.

Identification of sumoylation sites in CCDC6, the first identified RET partner gene in papillary thyroid carcinoma, uncovers a mode of regulating CCDC6 function on CREB1 transcriptional activity.

CCDC6 was originally identified in chimeric genes as caused by chromosomal translocation involving the RET protooncogene in some thyroid tumors.Recognised as a 65 kDa pro-apoptotic phosphoprotein, CCDC6 has been enrolled as an ATM substrate that contribute to protect genome integrity by modulating PP4c activity in response to genotoxic stress.Recen
