| CTTN | 15574754 | Identification of a binding partner for the endothelial cell surface proteins TEM7 and TEM7R. | Tumor endothelial marker 7 (TEM7) was recently identified as an mRNA transcript overexpressed in the blood vessels of human solid tumors. Here, we identify several new variants of TEM7, derived by alternative splicing, that are predicted to be intracellular (TEM7-I), secreted (TEM7-S), or on the cell surface membrane (TEM7-M) of tumor endothelium. Using new antibodies against the TEM7 protein, we confirmed the predicted expression of TEM7 on the cell surface and demonstrated that TEM7-M protein, like its mRNA, is overexpressed on the endothelium of various tumor types. We then used an affinity purification strategy to search for TEM7-binding proteins and identified cortactin as a protein capable of binding to the extracellular region of both TEM7 and its closest homologue, TEM7-related (TEM7R), which is also expressed in tumor endothelium. The binding domain of cortactin was mapped to a unique nine-amino acid region in its plexin-like domain. These studies establish the overexpression of TEM7 protein in tumor endothelium and provide new opportunities for the delivery of therapeutic and imaging agents to the vessels of solid tumors. | D015179 | Colorectal Neoplasms |

| CTTN | 24711643 | Identifying biological pathways that underlie primordial short stature using network analysis. | Mutations in CUL7, OBSL1 and CCDC8, leading to disordered ubiquitination, cause one of the commonest primordial growth disorders, 3-M syndrome. This condition is associated with i) abnormal p53 function, ii) GH and/or IGF1 resistance, which may relate to failure to recycle signalling molecules, and iii) cellular IGF2 deficiency. However the exact molecular mechanisms that may link these abnormalities generating growth restriction remain undefined. In this study, we have used immunoprecipitation/mass spectrometry and transcriptomic studies to generate a 3-M 'interactome', to define key cellular pathways and biological functions associated with growth failure seen in 3-M. We identified 189 proteins which interacted with CUL7, OBSL1 and CCDC8, from which a network including 176 of these proteins was generated. To strengthen the association to 3-M syndrome, these proteins were compared with an inferred network generated from the genes that were differentially expressed in 3-M fibroblasts compared with controls. This resulted in a final 3-M network of 131 proteins, with the most significant biological pathway within the network being mRNA splicing/processing. We have shown using an exogenous insulin receptor (INSR) minigene system that alternative splicing of exon 11 is significantly changed in HEK293 cells with altered expression of CUL7, OBSL1 and CCDC8 and in 3-M fibroblasts. The net result is a reduction in the expression of the mitogenic INSR isoform in 3-M syndrome. From these preliminary data, we hypothesise that disordered ubiquitination could result in aberrant mRNA splicing in 3-M; however, further investigation is required to determine whether this contributes to growth failure. | D004392 | Dwarfism |
