Introduction
Gankyrin, also known as proteasome 26S subunit, is an oncoprotein frequently overexpressed in hepatocellular carcinomas. It functions as a regulatory subunit of the 26S proteasome, which plays a crucial role in the ATP-dependent degradation of ubiquitinated proteins. Gankyrin interacts with the S6 ATPase within the 19S regulatory particle of the 26S proteasome. This protein is involved in regulating retinoblastoma protein phosphorylation by CDK4 and enhancing p53 ubiquitination by MDM2. Structurally similar to I kappa Bs, Gankyrin comprises seven ankyrin repeats. Gankyrin has been implicated in the progression of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and is believed to play an oncogenic role, particularly in the early stages of human hepatocarcinogenesis. It binds to NF-kappaB, suppressing its transcriptional activity by modulating acetylation via SIRT1. Structural comparisons between Gankyrin and p16(INK4A) have revealed several gankyrin residues potentially significant for CDK4 binding.
