Overview

Myc (c-Myc) is a protooncogene, which is overexpressed in a wide range of human cancers. When it is specifically-mutated, or overexpressed, it increases cell proliferation and functions as an oncogene. Myc gene encodes for a transcription factor that regulates expression of 15% of all genes [1] through binding on Enhancer Box sequences (E-boxes) and recruiting histone acetyltransferases (HATs). Myc belongs to Myc family of transcription factors, which also includes N-Myc and L-Myc genes. Myc-family transcription factors contain the bHLH/LZ (basic Helix-Loop-Helix Leucine Zipper) domain.

Discovery

Myc gene was first discovered in Burkitt's lymphoma patients. In Burkitt's lymphoma, cancer cells show chromosomal translocations, in which Chromosome 8 is frequently involved. Cloning the break point of the fusion chromosomes revealed a gene that was similar to myelocytomatosis viral oncogene (v-Myc). Thus, the newfound cellular gene was named c-Myc.

Structure

Myc belongs to Myc family of transcription factors, which also includes N-Myc and L-Myc genes. Myc family of transcription factors contain bHLH/LZ (basic Helix-Loop-Helix Leucine Zipper) domain. Myc protein, through its bHLH domain can bind to DNA, while the leucine zipper domain allows the dimerisation with its partner Max, another bHLH transcription factor.

Molecular Function

Myc protein is a transcription factor that activates expression of many genes through binding on consensus sequences (Enhancer Box sequences (E-boxes)) and recruiting histone acetyltransferases (HATs). It can also act as a transcriptional repressor. By binding Miz-1 transcription factor and displacing the p300 co-activator, it inhibits expression of Miz-1 target genes. In addition, myc has a direct role in the control of DNA replication.[2]

Myc is activated upon various mitogenic signals such as Wnt, Shh and EGF (via the MAPK/ERK pathway). By modifying the expression of its target genes, Myc activation results in numerous biological effects. The first to be discovered was its capability to drive cell proliferation (upregulates cyclins, downregulates p21), but it also plays a very important role in regulating cell growth (upregulates ribosomal RNA and proteins), apoptosis (downregulates Bcl-2), differentiation and stem cell self-renewal. Myc is a very strong proto-oncogene and it is very often found to be upregulated in many types of cancers. Myc overexpression stimulates gene amplification,[3] presumably through DNA over-replication.

There have been several studies that have clearly indicated Myc's role in cell competition.[4]

Myc-Nick

Myc-nick is a cytoplasmic form of Myc produced by a partial proteolytic cleavage of full-length c-Myc and N-Myc. (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2923036/pdf/nihms219804.pdf). Myc cleavage is mediated by the calpain family of calcium-dependent cytosolic proteases (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calpain).

The cleavage of Myc by calpains is a constitutive process, but is enhanced under conditions that require rapid downregulation of Myc levels, such as during terminal differentiation. Upon cleavage, the C-terminus of Myc (containing the DNA binding domain) is degraded, while Myc-nick, the N-terminal segment 298-residue segment remains in the cytoplasm. Myc-nick contains binding domains for histone acetyltransferases and for ubiquitin ligases.

The functions of Myc-nick are currently under investigation, but this new Myc family member was found to regulate cell morphology, at least in part, by interacting with acetyl transferases to promote the acetylation of α-tubulin. Ectopic expression of Myc-nick accelerates the differentiation of committed myoblasts into muscle cells.


Animal Models

During the discovery of Myc gene, it was realized that chromosomes that translocate to Chromosome 8 contained immunoglobulin genes at the break point. Enhancers that normally drive expression of immunoglobin genes, now lead to overexpression of Myc proto-oncogene in lymphoma cells. To study the mechanism of tumorigenesis in Burkitt's lymphoma by mimicking expression pattern of Myc in these cancer cells, transgenic mouse models were developed. Myc gene placed under the control of IgM heavy chain enhancer in transgenic mice gives rise to mainly lymphomas. Later on, to study effects of Myc in other types of cancer, transgenic mice that overexpress Myc in different tissues (liver, breast) were also made. In all these mouse models overexpression of Myc causes tumorigenesis, illustrating the potency of Myc oncogene.

Interactions

Myc has been shown to interact with NMI,[5] NFYC,[6] NFYB,[7] Cyclin T1,[8] RuvB-like 1,[9][10] GTF2I,[11] BRCA1,[5][12][13][14] T-cell lymphoma invasion and metastasis-inducing protein 1,[15] ACTL6A,[10] PCAF,[16] MYCBP2,[17] MAPK8,[18] Bcl-2,[19] Transcription initiation protein SPT3 homolog,[16] SAP130,[16] DNMT3A,[20] Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 3,[21] MAX,[22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34] Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 2,[21] MYCBP,[35] HTATIP,[36] ZBTB17,[37][38] Transformation/transcription domain-associated protein,[10][16][23][24] TADA2L,[16] PFDN5,[39][40] MAPK1,[19][41][42] TFAP2A,[43] P73,[44] TAF9,[16] YY1,[45] SMARCB1,[25] SMARCA4,[10][22] MLH1,[26] EP400[9] and let-7.[46][47][48]

Effects

A major effect of Myc is B cell proliferation.[49]

c-Myc induces AEG-1 or MTDH gene expression and in turn itself requires AEG-1 oncogene for its expression.

It is associated with carcinoma of the cervix,colon,breast,lung and stomach.

Cancer research

Except for early response genes, Myc universally upregulates gene expression. Furthermore the upregulation is nonlinear. Genes whose expression is already significantly upregulated in the absence of Myc are strongly boosted in the presence of Myc whereas genes whose expression is low in the absence Myc only get a small boost when Myc is present.[50]

Inactivation of SUMO-activating enzyme (SAE1 / SAE2) in the presence of Myc hyperactivation results in mitotic catastrophe and cell death in cancer cells. Hence inhibitors of SUMOylation may be a possible treatment for cancer.[51]
