摘要: Aberrant Wnt signalling promotes oncogenesis by increasing the nuclear accumulation of beta-catenin to activate downstream target genes. However, mechanism recruitment target-gene promoter, a critical step for removing co-repressor complex, is largely unknown. Here, we report that transducin beta-like protein 1 (TBL1) and its highly related family member TBLR1 were required Wnt-beta-catenin-mediated transcription. induced interaction between TBL1-TBLR1, as well their binding Importantly, TBL1-TBLR1 promoters was mutually dependent on each other. Furthermore, depletion significantly inhibited Wnt-beta-catenin-induced gene expression oncogenic growth in vitro vivo. Our results unravel two new components function, have important implications developing strategies inhibiting tumorigenesis.
