MedKoo CAT#: 408101

CAS#: 145888-79-5

Description: RAMB4, also known as PTP1B-IN-9, is a ubiquitin-proteasome system stressor. RAMB4 selectively reduces the viability of cervical cancer cells independently of HPV genotype via blockade of proteasomal degradation. RAMB4 treatment triggers a Ubiquitin-Proteasome-System-stress response without affecting 20S proteasome catalytic activities.

More Info: Cervical cancer cells exhibit an increased requirement for ubiquitin-dependent protein degradation associated with an elevated metabolic turnover rate, and for specific signaling pathways, notably HPV E6-targeted degradation of p53 and PDZ proteins. Natural compounds with antioxidant properties including flavonoids and triterpenoids hold promise as anticancer agents by interfering with ubiquitin-dependent protein degradation. An increasing body of evidence indicates that their α-β unsaturated carbonyl system is the molecular determinant for inhibition of ubiquitin-mediated protein degradation up-stream of the catalytic sites of the 20S proteasome.

Product Data:
Biological target: RAMB4 is an inhibitor of the ubiquitin-proteasome system. It increases the levels of polyubiquitinated proteins in HeLa cervical cancer cells, but does not inhibit the chymotrypsin-like, trypsin-like, or peptidylglutamyl peptide hydrolyzing-like activities of the 20S proteasome.
In vitro activity: RAMB1 treatment results in activation of lysosomal-dependent degradation pathways as a mechanism to compensate for increasing levels of poly-ubiquitin enriched toxic aggregates. RAMB1 synergistically triggers cell death of cervical cancer cells when combined with Chloroquine. Reference: PLoS One. 2011;6(8):e23888. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21909374/
In vivo activity: To be determined
