KELCH-LIKE 25

Cytogenetic location: 15q25.3     Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 15:85,759,326-85,794,925 (from NCBI)


TEXT

Description

KLHL25 forms a ubiquitin ligase complex with cullin-3 (CUL3; 613136) that targets ATP citrate lyase (ACLY; 108728) for ubiquitination and degradation (Zhang et al., 2016).


Cloning and Expression

Dhanoa et al. (2013) reported that the human KLHL25 protein contains 589 amino acids and has a TB/POZ domain, a BACK domain, and 5 Kelch motifs.


Mapping

Gross (2022) mapped the KLHL25 gene to chromosome 15q25.3 based on an alignment of the KLHL25 sequence (GenBank BC028100) with the genomic sequence (GRCh38).


Gene Function

By coimmunoprecipitation and mass spectrometric analyses, Zhang et al. (2016) showed that ACLY interacted indirectly with CUL3 through KLHL25 to form a complex in human lung cancer H1299 cells. KLHL25 interacted directly with ACLY and functioned as a substrate adaptor to bridge ACLY to CUL3. CUL3-KLHL25 negatively regulated ACLY protein levels in cells through protein ubiquitination and degradation, and low CUL3 expression was associated with high ACLY expression in human lung cancer. Through negative regulation of ACLY, CUL3-KLHL25 reduced acetyl-CoA levels and inhibited lipid synthesis, which in turn contributed to the inhibitory effect of CUL3-KLHL25 on proliferation and anchorage-independent growth of lung cancer cells. In vivo analysis revealed that CUL3-KLHL25 inhibited growth of xenograft lung tumors in mice through negative regulation of ACLY.

Tian et al. (2021) found that Acly regulated differentiation of mouse inducible regulatory T cells (iTregs). Tgfb1 (190180) induced Acly downregulation through Cul3-Klhl25-mediated ubiquitination and degradation, which in turn facilitated iTreg differentiation. Analysis with human iTregs confirmed the conserved role of CUL3-KLHL25-mediated ACLY ubiquitination in iTreg differentiation. Analysis with a mouse inflammatory bowel disease (IBD; see 266600) model revealed an important role of Cul3-Klhl25-mediated Acly ubiquitination in colitis alleviation and in regulation of diarrhea.
