Disease

CTNB1_HUMAN Defects in CTNNB1 are associated with colorectal cancer (CRC) [MIM:114500. Note=Activating mutations in CTNNB1 have oncogenic activity resulting in tumor development. Somatic mutations are found in various tumor types, including colon cancers, ovarian and prostate carcinomas, hepatoblastoma (HB), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HBs are malignant embryonal tumors mainly affecting young children in the first three years of life. Defects in CTNNB1 are a cause of pilomatrixoma (PTR) [MIM:132600; a common benign skin tumor.[1] [2] [3] Defects in CTNNB1 are a cause of medulloblastoma (MDB) [MIM:155255. MDB is a malignant, invasive embryonal tumor of the cerebellum with a preferential manifestation in children.[4] [5] Defects in CTNNB1 are a cause of susceptibility to ovarian cancer (OC) [MIM:167000. Ovarian cancer common malignancy originating from ovarian tissue. Although many histologic types of ovarian neoplasms have been described, epithelial ovarian carcinoma is the most common form. Ovarian cancers are often asymptomatic and the recognized signs and symptoms, even of late-stage disease, are vague. Consequently, most patients are diagnosed with advanced disease. Note=A chromosomal aberration involving CTNNB1 is found in salivary gland pleiomorphic adenomas, the most common benign epithelial tumors of the salivary gland. Translocation t(3;8)(p21;q12) with PLAG1. Defects in CTNNB1 may be a cause of mesothelioma malignant (MESOM) [MIM:156240. An aggressive neoplasm of the serosal lining of the chest. It appears as broad sheets of cells, with some regions containing spindle-shaped, sarcoma-like cells and other regions showing adenomatous patterns. Pleural mesotheliomas have been linked to exposure to asbestos.[6]

Function

CTNB1_HUMAN Key downstream component of the canonical Wnt signaling pathway. In the absence of Wnt, forms a complex with AXIN1, AXIN2, APC, CSNK1A1 and GSK3B that promotes phosphorylation on N-terminal Ser and Thr residues and ubiquitination of CTNNB1 via BTRC and its subsequent degradation by the proteasome. In the presence of Wnt ligand, CTNNB1 is not ubiquitinated and accumulates in the nucleus, where it acts as a coactivator for transcription factors of the TCF/LEF family, leading to activate Wnt responsive genes. Involved in the regulation of cell adhesion. Acts as a negative regulator of centrosome cohesion. Involved in the CDK2/PTPN6/CTNNB1/CEACAM1 pathway of insulin internalization. Blocks anoikis of malignant kidney and intestinal epithelial cells and promotes their anchorage-independent growth by down-regulating DAPK2.[7] [8] [9] [10]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

The inhibition of intracellular protein-protein interactions is challenging, in particular, when involved interfaces lack pronounced cavities. The transcriptional co-activator protein and oncogene beta‑catenin is a prime example of such a challenging target. Despite extensive targeting efforts, available high-affinity binders comprise only large molecular weight Inhibitors. This hampers the further development of therapeutically useful compounds. Herein, we report the design of a considerably smaller peptidomimetic scaffold derived from the alpha-helical beta‑catenin-binding motif of Axin. Sequence maturation and bicyclization provided a stitched peptide with an unprecedented crosslink architecture. The binding mode and site were confirmed by a crystal structure. Further derivatization yielded a beta-catenin inhibitor with single-digit micromolar activity in a cell-based assay. This study sheds a light on how to design helix mimetics with reduced molecular weight thereby improving their biological activity.
