Here we demonstrate that NOL7 is an mRNA-binding protein that must localize to the nucleoplasm to exert its antiangiogenic and tumor suppressive effects.
In this study, we show that the RB tumor suppressor gene (RB) positively regulates NOL7 at the transcriptional level by recruiting transcription factors and transcription machinery proteins to its promoter region.
Using cervical cancer as a model of investigation, we have previously shown that loss of NOL7 mRNA and protein expression is observed as early as the premalignant phase.
In this study, we show that the RB tumor suppressor gene (RB) positively regulates NOL7 at the transcriptional level by recruiting transcription factors and transcription machinery proteins to its promoter region.
