Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine melanoma cells show a a widespread loss or reduced expression of ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase UCHL1, which is directly correlated with promoter DNA hypermethylation. The subset of melanoma cells, which still express UCHL1, shows altered growth properties and tolerances against reactive oxygen species as compared to UCHL1-negative cells. UCHL1 may function as a new diagnostic biomarker or therapeutic target for the treatment of UCHL1-positive melanomas Homo sapiens
