Abstract: by inactivating the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) and inducing autophagy and apoptotic cell death. This strong inhibition was dependent on the E3 ligase activity of RNF152. Ectopic expression of the RNF152-CS-mutant, which lacks E3 ligase activity, significantly restored the proliferation ability of CRC cells. Our findings showed that RNF152 inhibits colorectal cancer growth and may be a novel prognostic biomarker for the treatment of CRC.
