Overview of Gene Research
Elob, also known as Elongin B, is a pivotal element in the ELOB/c-Cullin2/5-SOCS-box E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex. It plays a significant role in catalyzing the ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of a broad spectrum of target proteins. Elob, as part of the Elongin complex, is also involved in RNA polymerase II transcription regulation [2,4].

Blocking the BC-box-binding pocket of the Elongin BC (ELOB/C) dimer with a designed peptide can decrease cancer cell viability, increase apoptosis, and perturb gene expression, suggesting a potential strategy to inhibit cancer cell growth [1]. In breast cancer, down-regulation of ELOB significantly suppresses the proliferation of breast cancer cells both in vivo and in vitro by regulating the ubiquitination and degradation of oncoprotein p14/ARF [2]. In triple-negative breast cancer, high ELOB expression is associated with poor prognosis in radiotherapy-treated patients, and targeting ELOB can enhance radiosensitivity by modulating mitochondrial function [3]. In male infertility, Asb1 knockout mice with excessive oxidative stress and decreased H2S levels in testes show that ASB1 interacts with ELOB to enhance the K48-linked ubiquitination of sulfide-quinone oxidoreductase (SQOR), leading to its proteasomal degradation, which is crucial for H2S homeostasis and redox balance [5].

In conclusion, Elob is crucial in processes like ubiquitination-mediated protein degradation, transcription regulation, and has implications in cancer and male infertility. The studies using in vivo models such as cancer cell-based in vivo experiments and knockout mouse models have revealed its role in these disease-related biological processes, offering potential therapeutic targets for related diseases.
