Abstract

NF-κB transcription factors are central regulators of inflammation and when dysregulated contribute to malignant transformation. IκB kinase ε (IKKε; IKKi, encoded by IKBKE) is a breast oncogene that is amplified in 30% of breast cancers and drives transformation in an NF-κB-dependent manner. Here we demonstrate that IKKε interacts with and phosphorylates tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2) at Ser11 in vitro and in vivo. This activity promotes Lys63-linked TRAF2 ubiquitination and NF-κB activation and is essential for IKKε transformation. Breast cancer cells that depend on IKKε expression for survival are also dependent on TRAF2. This work defines TRAF2 phosphorylation to be one key effector of IKKε-induced mammary epithelial cell transformation.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 24 November 2012.
All research outputs
#17,302,400
of 25,394,764 outputs
Outputs from Molecular & Cellular Biology
#10,612
of 11,893 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#248,106
of 421,970 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Molecular & Cellular Biology
#7,827
of 8,978 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,394,764 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 11,893 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.5. This one is in the 5th percentile – i.e., 5% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 421,970 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 29th percentile – i.e., 29% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 8,978 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 6th percentile – i.e., 6% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
