Abstract

The CNOT3 protein is a subunit of the CCR4-NOT complex, which is involved in mRNA degradation. We recently identified CNOT3 loss-of-function mutations in patients with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). Here, we use different Drosophila melanogaster eye cancer models to study the potential tumor suppressor function of Not3, the CNOT3 orthologue, and other members of the CCR4-NOT complex. Our data show that knockdown of Not3, the structural components Not1/Not2, and the deadenylases twin/Pop2 all result in increased tumor formation. In addition, overexpression of Not3 could reduce tumor formation. Not3 downregulation has a mild but broad effect on gene expression and leads to increased levels of genes involved in DNA replication and ribosome biogenesis. CycB upregulation also contributes to the Not3 tumor phenotype. Similar findings were obtained in human T-ALL cell lines, pointing out the conserved function of Not3. Together, our data establish a critical role for Not3 and the entire CCR4-NOT complex as tumor suppressor.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 8. 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 28 September 2018.
All research outputs
#3,744,180
of 23,577,654 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Hematology & Oncology
#297
of 1,223 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#71,652
of 335,309 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Hematology & Oncology
#6
of 20 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,577,654 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 84th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,223 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 10.8. This one has done well, scoring higher than 75% of its peers.
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 335,309 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 78% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 20 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 70% of its contemporaries.
