Identification of PHRF1 as a Tumor Suppressor that Promotes the TGF-β Cytostatic Program through Selective Release of TGIF-Driven PML Inactivation

The homeodomain protein TGIF (TG-interacting factor) restricts TGF-β/Smad cytostatic signaling by interfering with the nucleocytoplasmic transit of the tumor suppressor cPML. Here, we identify PHRF1 as a ubiquitin ligase that enforces TGIF decay by driving its ubiquitination at lysine 130. In so do...
