Abstract

The invention discloses an application of an ELL(C595A) mutant in the promotion of tumor metastasis. The invention provides at least one applications of ELL(C595A) protein of (1) to (6): (1) preparing products that promote tumor metastasis; (2) preparing products that promote tumor cell migration; (3) preparing products that can improve the performance on resisting tumor cell invasion; (4) preparing products that can increase the gene expression related with tumor metastasis; (5) preparing animal models that are used to screen and treat tumor metastasis; (6) preparing animal models that are applied to researches on tumor metastasis mechanism. The inventor finds that ELL mutant namely ELL(C595A) protein can promote tumor metastasis and improve the performance on resisting tumor cell invasion; and moreover, the ELL(C595A) protein can be used to prepare animal models that are used to screen and treat tumor metastasis and animal models that are applied to researches on tumor metastasis mechanism.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to the application of ELL (C595A) in promoting tumor cell migration. Background technique [0002] The gene product of ELL was first defined as the translocated portion of the MLL gene in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) (Thirman et al. 1994). Further biochemical studies identified ELL as a transcriptional elongation factor that increases the transcriptional elongation activity of RNA polymerase II in vitro, and later in vivo studies revealed its associated transcriptionally active loci (Eissenberg et al. 2002, Shilatifard et al. 1996). ELL is part of two distinct elongation complexes, the super elongation complex (SEC) and the small elongation complex (LEC) (Hu et al. 2013, Luo et al. 2012, Smith and Shilatifard 2013). As one of the most active forms of the positive transcriptional elongation factor (P-TEFb), the super elongation complex (SEC) performs several important functions, such a...
