Proteins in the tripartite motif-containing protein (TRIM) family participates in carcinogenesis. However, little attention was focused on the role of TRIM6 on development of breast cancer. Expression level of TRIM6 was found to be markedly enhanced in breast cancer cells and tissues. Functional assays demonstrated that overexpression of TRIM6 promoted breast cancer progression through increase of YAP1 (Yes-associated Protein 1), while knockdown of TRIM6 suppressed in vitro breast cancer progression and in vivo tumor growth through decrease of YAP1. Co-Immunoprecipitation (co-IP) showed that TRIM6 interacted with STUB1 (stress induced phosphoprotein 1 homology and U-box containing protein 1). TRIM6 promoted ubiquitination-mediated degradation of STUB1 to promote YAP1 signaling. Overexpression of STUB1 attenuated TRIM6-induced promotion of breast cancer growth. In conclusion, TRIM6 contributed to breast cancer progression through ubiquitination-dependent proteasomal degradation of STUB1 and provocation of YAP1 pathway, providing potential therapeutic target for breast cancer.
