Homo sapiens | role of AKT in regulating TCP1 downstream of FGFR2, Akt inhibition results in downregulation of TCP1 protein as well as reduced levels of Akt and RPS6 phosphorylation | down |
Homo sapiens | the TCP1 subunit of TRiC is regulated by fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2), the induction of TCP1 by FGFR2 is inhibited by PD173074, i.e. N-[2-[[4-(diethylamino)butyl]amino-6-(3,5-dimethoxyphenyl)pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-yl]-N'-(1,1-dimethylethyl)urea], an ATP-competitive inhibitor. FGFR2 signals through PI3K and Akt to regulate TCP1 expression | up |

metabolism | the TCP1 subunit of TRiC is regulated by FGFR2, necessary for proliferation of breast cancer cells and associated with poor overall survival of breast cancer patients. FGFR2 signals through PI3K and Akt to regulate TCP1 expression, this signaling does not require mTOR activity | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | TRiC is a multi-protein chaperone complex that functions to assist polypeptides in achieving a functional three-dimensional configuration. It has an essential role in folding the highly abundant cytoskeletal proteins actin and tubulin The TCP1 and CCT2 genes both encode for components of a multi-protein chaperone complex in the cell known as the TCP1 containing ring complex (TRiC). The TRiC subunits TCP1 and CCT2, and potentially the entire TRiC complex, play a role in breast cancer. TCP1 and CCT2 are recurrently altered in breast cancer and necessary for growth/survival of breast cancer cells in vitro, they are determinants of overall survival in breast cancer patients. Expression of TCP1 is regulated by driver oncogene activation of PI3K signaling in breast cancer. Role for CCT2 in cell cycle progression. The TCP1 subunit of TRiC is both regulated by FGFR2 and necessary for cell growth in SUM-52 cells. the TCP1 subunit of TRiC is regulated by FGFR2, necessary for proliferation of breast cancer cells and associated with poor overall survival of breast cancer patients | Homo sapiens |
