NEDD8 regulates the ubiquitin-proteasome degradation pathways related to CRL and MDM2, and it realizes the regulation of proteins by promoting the NF-κB, PI3K/AKT/mTOR, Hippo-YAP and receptor tyrosine kinase signaling pathways. NEDD8 also inhibits MDM2-p53, HIF and other signaling pathways, which in turn affects DNA damage repair, the cell cycle and tumor development. HIF, hypoxia-inducible factor; CRL, cullin-ring ligase; EMT, epithelial to mesenchymal transition; NEDD8, neural precursor cell expressed developmentally downregulated 8; NAE, NEDD8-activating enzyme; NEDP1, NEDD8 protease 1; CSN, constitutive photomorphogenesis signalosome; PTEN, phosphatase and tensin homolog; VHL, von Hippel-Lindau; Mst1/2, mammalian sterile 20-like kinase 1/2; YAP, Yes-associated protein; MDM2, murine double minute 2; PI3K, phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase; AKT, protein kinase B; mTOR, mammalian target of rapamycin; LATS1/2, large tumor suppressor homolog 1/2; EGFR, epidermal growth factor receptor; TGFβRII, TGF-β type II receptor.
