Musings from the Tribbles Research and Innovation Network.


ABSTRACT: This commentary integrates historical and modern findings that underpin our understanding of the cell-specific functions of the Tribbles (TRIB) proteins that bear on tumorigenesis. We touch on the initial discovery of roles played by mammalian TRIB proteins in a diverse range of cell-types and pathologies, for example, TRIB1 in regulatory T-cells, TRIB2 in acute myeloid leukaemia and TRIB3 in gliomas; the origins and diversity of TRIB1 transcripts; microRNA-mediated (miRNA) regulation of TRIB1 transcript decay and translation; the substantial conformational changes that ensue on binding of TRIB1 to the transcription factor C/EBPα; and the unique pocket formed by TRIB1 to sequester its C-terminal motif bearing a binding site for the E3 ubiquitin ligase COP1. Unashamedly, the narrative is relayed through the perspective of the Tribbles Research and Innovation Network, and its establishment, progress and future ambitions: the growth of TRIB and COP1 research to hasten discovery of their cell-specific contributions to health and obesity-related cancers.
